Grade Rocky McIntosh

[Redskins8588]

I think that everyone is looking at this years draft all wrong. We are putting to much on the whole Rocky pick where we need to look at the draft as a whole.

The "Overall" 2006 Washington Redskins Draft:
Round 1 - QB - Jason Campbell - Auburn (Denver Trade)
Round 2 - OLB - Roger "Rocky" McIntosh - Miami
Round 3 - WR - Brandon Lloyd - Illinois (49er Trade)
Round 4 - QB - Jason Campbell - Auburn (Denver Trade)
Round 5 - DT - Anthony Montgomery - Minnesota
Round 6 - SS - Reed Doughty - Northern Colorado
Round 6 - OLB - Roger "Rocky" McIntosh - Miami (NY Jets Trade)
Round 6 - DT - Kedric Golston - Georgia
Round 7 - G - Kili Lefotu - Arizona
Round 7 - ILB - Kevin Simon - Tennessee

Some may say that we gave up to much for Campbell and McIntosh, but looking at it what are the chances that who ever we would have picked up in the 4th and 6th round would have made the team anyway? Now next years 2nd round pick which essentially is also used for Rocky is another story, but like this year if we have another good year our 2nd round pick could be at the tail end of the 2nd round which would almost be like the begining of the 3rd round.

Either way I am glad with the team we have and the draft choices we made. I am looking forward to this season with somewhat high expectations...
