1st - Phillip Merling - DE/DT - Clemson - The Redskins entourage was in full force for Merling's on campus workout, a site that was all to familiar to former 1st round pick Jason Campbell. Merling has everything the team is looking for in a D-lineman and would be an excellent compliment to Andre Carter.

2nd - Jordy Nelson - WR - Kansas State - The Redskins have shown a lot of interest in Nelson lately and with the 49ers being the only real threat to take Nelson in the 2nd, look for the team to end the madness among Redskin fans and make everyone forget that Anthony Mix ever existed. Don't be surprised if the team takes their 2nd and 3rd round picks to move up into the second in an attempt to draft Jordy.

3rd - Tony Hills - T/G - Texas - The Redskins get Derrick Dockery 2.0. Except this time he's more athletic. Unfortunately he comes with injury concerns but he's quick enough to pull and get out into the open field on screens. He can also play LT if duty calls. Of course this pick could just as easily be Roy Schuening or Jeramy Zutah should either of them fall.

3rd Comp - Owen Schmitt - FB - West Virginia - Man crushes run amuck and though I admit this pick is a reach I still believe the team will view Schmitt as the best player available. At the very least we'll get a special teams demon and at the best we'll get a guy who could easily become the best FB in the league.

5th - Zach Bowman - CB - The Redskins go for another talented player with injury concerns. Bowman has the size and speed teams look for in a CB and at one point scouts considered him a possible first round pick, but injuries put an end to Bowman's 1st round aspirations. Regardless he seems to have retained his speed, clocking in at 4.38 during the combine.

6th - Kevin O'Connell - QB - San Diego State - The Redskins get a talented developmental prospect with a good arm and the type of mobility that scouts look for in a west coast QB.

7th - Alvin Bowen - OLB - Iowa State - The Redskins add depth at OLB with Bowen. Bowen was one of the most productive college LB's the last two years. However if Corey Lynch somehow falls this far then look for the team to turn in their card ASAP.

7th Comp - Andrew Crummy - C/G - Maryland - The Redskins get a quality local prospect that can play Center.

7th Comp - Marcus Dixon - DT/DE - Hampton - The Redskins find another local product to help out along the D-line.

After reading that ESPN article about Dixon he intrigues me, if we could get him in the 7th that would be pretty cool.
