You'd think I'd be happier, but honestly I don't think that there's any offensive lineman at 21 that I would take with the 21st pick, especially considering the fact that Branden Albert will probably be gone. Lets see, the only lineman that I can think of being worth the pick at 21 might be Gosder Cherilus, but I personally think we can get better value in rounds 2 or 3.
Gosder Cherilus Scouting Report - 2008 NFL Draft Prospect
I wonder what they mean when they label him as versitle. If it means that he can play Guard for the time being then awesome, but if he can only play Tackle then I'm not so sure.
I kind of like him though, he has a nice combination of feet and hand use, not to mention power. And according to Mark Schlearth, as well as all the coaches I met when I was in high school, the key to being a good lineman is not only power, but good use of hands and feet, not to mention being able to get off the ball.
Duane Brown of Virginia Tech seems to be another name but that would probably be a guy they would select if they trade down into the second round. I'd also expect them to select Lawrence Jackson if they traded back into the second and maybe pounce on Jordy with an early third round pick.
God this draft just got a lot more complicated. And the funny thing is you'd think with all the info coming out of Redskin park it would be easy to guess who the Skins were going to pick. Looks like Zorn was right when he said theres a lot guys that they're looking at right now.
