Kiper still has us grabbing Talib in the 1st- my heart and brain tell me that is a BIG mistake. Cromartie or Cason is a better pick than that at Cornerback.

I have an idea. We should set a date...maybe April 24th or so and everyone should submit their draft projections...1-7th rounds. You get 1 point if you guess right for the 1st round...2 points for the 2nd round and so on...highest point total wins the honor of being named "Redskin Draft Guru" for 2008. I offer to tally everyone's projected lists and post them here.

Lol, you can't say 'some of you' have said Jordy in the 2nd round because thats all on me. Right now I'm starting to get the vibe that the Skins might not address the recieving position with their first 4 picks. In fact the only way would be if Jordy sliped to them in the third, which is possible, but I don't know how likely that scenario is.

It's very possible that a lot of those recievers you mentioned could slip to the early 2nd round like Rice and Jarret did last year so a slide like that could prevent teams from reaching on a guy like Jordy leaving him wide open for us to pickup in the third round, which for me would be a dream come true, given that one of the first two picks was a G like Rachel or Albert.

My dream scenario would be

1st - Branden Albert - G - UVA
2nd - Reggie Nelson - CB/S - Oklahoma
3rd - Jordy Nelson or Dre Moore
3rd comp - Wallace Gilberry - DE - Alabama
