Wrap up of the senior bowl practices and prospect analysis.

Me likey....

LSU OT La'el Collins — If he's not a top-15 or 20 pick, I'd be shocked. The week was exactly what scouts hoped to see. Collins stonewalled pass rushers all week, and his ability to play tackle and guard makes him an extremely safe prospect, too. Collins might not be a dominant, pile-driving force in the NFL, but it would be surprising to see him flop in the league.

Duke OG Laken Tomlinson — If he didn't consistently hold up well in blocking drills and team work, Tomlinson would have earned high marks anyway for his character. Two teams we spoke with said he nailed his interviews with them, giving them the belief that he'll be a set-and-forget starter at guard for the better part of a decade. Defensive lineman Danny Shelton got him once or twice, but Tomlinson held up very well all week.

this is another example of why trading down makes sense.If the Redskins add picks, they could get 5 - 10 rookies that contribute ......getting extra 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks would get you a Tomlinson, Orchard, etc.

It always make sense to trade down but this team needs some impact players. We can't afford to leave the next Aldon Smith or JJ Watt on board to acquire career back ups.

career back ups ? The Redskins need 4 DBs, 4 OL, 2 DL, 2 LBs, and more - good draft picks will start

Norfolk State OLB Lynden Trail — Built like a Range Rover, the 6-foot-6, 260-pound Trail overcame poor practice habits at Florida, where coaches Will Muschamp and Dan Quinn called him out, and moved to Norfolk, where he dominated. On Wednesday, he was agile in staying step for step covering tight ends, and on Thursday he had a huge day: Not only did he make a terrific interception in the red zone, showing some Julius Peppers-esque ball skills, but Trail also lined up at tight end (where he played some in college) and looked natural catching the ball. Trail is confident and supremely athletic, and he might not make it out of Day 2. He said he feels his best position is at outside 'backer, moving in space and running free to make plays all over the field.

Yeah I'm starting to like this guy, would be a nice pickup in the later rounds.

JJ Watt was drafted 11th overall and Aldon Smith was drafted 7th, to use redskinsfan1980's examples. We can trade back and still get a guy like that. It's not like the only elite players in the draft are in the top 5.

We could have drafted JJ Watt but we decided to trade back. We got Kerrigan, but lets be real, he'll never be as good as Watt. Jarvis Jenkins and Leonard Hankerson are career back ups at best. My point was that you can't leave those type of impact players on the board. If we see the next JJ Watt sitting there at 5. We take him at 5. If we see another guy that we believe can be a dynamic player that will likely be there at 15, then trading back will make a lot of sense. We shouldn't just trade back for the sake of trading back.

People want us to draft Winston ??

Well, did we expect something different?

The missing pieces: How many players away from the Super Bowl was each team?

You can't tell the fans this. They think we are one player away.

That's GD RIGHT. What if we cloned the best parts of the greatest players into one super-mega-unstoppable player? What then huh?
