I also like the addition of rookie ILB Robinson from Texas. He looks like he will contribute right away on special teams , not to mention what he could do with experience down the road.
With the whispers of CB Talib around, makes me think Morris & Co. believe that one more really good CB is not yet on the roster. Good for them to shake the trees looking for one. Go get him. Another season of our #3 CB being crap can not be tolerated. CB Wilson should be moved to #3 CB once we secure a real #2 CB capable of covering the slot WR in the nickle and dime D. We currently do not have a good one.

I'm really not big on Meriweather. Luckily for the defense, Madieu Williams or Cedric Griffin or even Reed Doughty can replace Meriweather if his game slacks off. I also like the drafting of Keenen Robinson. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets some reps with the defense this season. I'm looking forward to Perry Riley making plays for us. He's certainly an upgrade over McIntosh. A Aqib Talib signing is a risky move. Regardless of he he played under Raheem Morris or not, I feel the Redskins should stay clear of him. Josh Wilson really came on strong at the end of last season. If he picks up where he left off, then he'll have a situational season for us.
