Your First round pick for the skins?

I know it's early, but we have nothing else positive to talk about. Name your pick and why?


Randy Gregory- DE Nebraska

Amari Cooper- WR Alabama

Brandon Scherff- OT IOWA

Landon Collins- S Alabama

Andrus Peat- OT Stanford

Other...

Re: Your First round pick for the skins?

I just keep hearing great things about Stanford Andrus Peat OT and USC DE Leonard Williams

Id like to keep it in the trenches, I dont think there are great choices in the secondary first round.

McShay, in his first mock, has taking Shane Ray OLB/DE Missouri. Not sure we would go that route after drafting Trent Murphy. Anything in the trench on either side of the ball is fine with me.

Re: Your First round pick for the skins?

Landon Collins for me. I wouldn't mind another pass rusher either, but pass rush and safety play goes hand in hand, and I'm afraid we have 3 or 4 half decent pass rushers in one hand but 0 safeties in the other hand.

Kerrigan's pressure could make Collins look pretty good, some rushed throws could mean INTs if we actually had a rangy safety back there.

Re: Your First round pick for the skins?

Also yeah, a stud offensive lineman would be nice. Put him on the right side. Let Moses learn how to play guard.

Re: Your First round pick for the skins?

It's a good year for defensive linemen/pass rushers. Gregory, Shane Ray, Leonard Williams, Shawn Oakman, Danny Shelton, etc. Trade back several spots and get one of these guys. We're way too old on the defensive line, and even Baker isn't anything more than solid. Offensive line can wait a round or two, and the safety class doesn't seem to be very strong this year.

Damn the trade back, stay where you are and take the best prospect that can help you. That trade back is how we have Kerrigan and not a possible JJ Watt or Robert Quinn

Are you kidding? How many useless third round OL should we have on our team? The only way for this FO to identify a good OL is to draft a first rounder who is a consensus stud. They'll screw up any other OL pick.

With our first pick I want the Skins to pick the best OT in the draft. Then, I want the Skins to move up into the late first round and pick the best OG in the draft. This is my dream.

So you're among those that say if an offensive lineman(or any position I suppose) isn't good enough to start as a rookie, he'll never be good enough? Why wouldn't you give Long and Moses another season at the very least before writing them off "useless?"

Re: Your First round pick for the skins?

Trade down, get an OL, S or DE whatever the best player at that position who's available. If RGIII is traded, then I would consider Mariota.

I agree, trade back in the first round, and add picks. They need help everywhere..... OL, TE, S, QB, - and good scouts / GM

Long is useless right now because he isn't playing and I have to wonder if Long will ever be able to start if he can't beat out Chester. Moses is hurt, of course, but I doubt that he'll ever be a stud at OT. LeRibeus is ballast.

I believe that a dominant (not just good enough) OL is key to the long term success of a team. That's why I want two studs for the OL. Long and Moses may be OK as backups.

I don't understand why fans and more importantly, our FO does not realize this.

Shane Ray or Leonard Williams.

Landon Collins is a close second behind them, he just has some coverage issues.
