I've said it before but..

C+

We had an A, until we picked an unknown guard who was considered a reach in the 3rd, and drafted a backup QB in the fourth. I know Kirk Cousins was so good and was a 3 time captain and 4 year starter blah blah blah. But like people have said we don't exactly have the best pick situation for the next 2 years. And a LOT can happen in two years. I know we can "Matt Cassel" Cousins and get picks for him, but realistically we need those picks IMO sooner, rather than later. And I don't see those picks coming next year. Even the year after I don't see it. Sure we have a young backup to Griffin incase he gets hurt. But remember this skins fans, Rex Grossman knows this system better than Griffin and Cousins combined, so if RG3 goes down, it won't be Cousins in, it will be Sexy Rexy. We could do a situation like what Gibbs (or was it Zorn?) did a few years ago, where he said If QB1 goes down in the game then QB2 goes in; but if QB1 is still out for next week then QB3 will go in if QB3 has learned all his stuff and is prepared prior to the next weeks game. I feel like Gibbs did this with Brunell Campbell and Collins but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm like Mayock, I see both sides to having and not having Cousins, but after all is said and done, it wasn't worth it. (Hell Kellen moore could have been had as an undrafted FA)

Another thing I was going to bring up about our draft is the fact that we drafted about 4 people I've never heard of in my life. Rarely is that a good thing. I thought it was a joke when one of the fans said we drafted Josh LeRibeus. Sure he's a guard and at SMU so he didn't get much attention, but you can not tell me that Bobby Massie is worse than him. Then on top of that is Jordan Bernstein. I've seen 3 Iowa games the past 2 years, never heard his name. And he's at a position where your name is called. That was a wasted pick. I will be SHOCKED if he makes the final roster. Then theres the SMU CB (what is it with SMU kids anyway?) Richard Crawford I believe is his name. Why the hell did we draft him when Dennard was still available? I know Dennard was arrested, but its not like he's going to jail for years, and his upside is much better than crawfords. And Keenan Robinson. Everywhere I look and read it says that he is strictly a 4-3 WLB. I went to look at his highlights, and I feel like we could have drafted another ILB, because Keenan, who is great in passing situations, is not good in run situations. I watched his games against OU, Baylor and A&M. The dude will do several different things. He'll either A) throw his arm out last minute and attempt to trip up the RB, which rarely worked B) dip his head down and hope that the RB got tackled, which again rarely worked (whiffing at the tackle) C) decide that this is the time he wants to go full speed for a hit, and shoot up the wrong hole Or just flat out miss. He needs to bulk up because he looks like Gumby trying to go through traffic, and he gets pushed around by guards fairly easily. I really don't think that being mentored by fletcher will make his tackling problems go away. If you don't want to hit a college RB head on, why would you just want to hit an NFL RB head on? He was a name though, which is typically a good thing when drafting players, but I don't see this guy sticking for a year 3 here.
However with the bad drafting comes the solid UDFA signings which we made up for the last half of our draft. As always I will be looking back on this draft and looking at what names I wrote down for draft day I wanted the skins to pick, and see how they far two years from now to see if I was right or not (ex: Desean jackson instead of Devin Thomas)
