I'm feeling like I got kicked in the balls with those last two picks...

Billick makes a good point. We need the numbers for the WCO... the way the draft is shaking out for us, the FO obviously had a plan going into it.

Re: The official 2008 draft discussion thread
very surprised by another wide reciever...espn seems to like the picks though...

hopefully we bolster the offensive and defensive lines tomorrow and pick up a db, never know here though

Re: The official 2008 draft discussion thread
So two WRs plus they signed Mathis? My guess is Mathis is gone before he even starts.

When are we getting some D-line help? Kendall Langford in the 4th round?

There's something in the Redskin Rulebook about drafting D-linemen early. We should all know that by now.

I don't get this at all. I felt the need was more along the O-line -- it's still good, but aging. It's the most important group of players on a football team, and this organization appears to be content with milking the current guys for all they're worth without preparing for their inevitable decline.

Or they really didn't like any of the O-linemen at this juncture.

Typically O-Linemen can be found in some of the later rounds - outside of LT - plus 8 guys went in the 1st and some more in the 2nd so I can see skipping on that position. Skipping on Campbell for Fred Davis especially is what surprises me.

The pick that really has me scratching my head is Fred Davis. I'm assuming that the thinking is both that now you can run two TE sets and have two pass receiving players as well as some insurance should Cooley go down for any time. Seems like a luxury pick with both Campbell and Groves on the board at that time. I know they liked Kelly, and I did as well, but also seems like a bit of a luxury pick ... after taking Thomas.

I would have thought they might have gone Campbell at 48 then even come back with Kelly ... The only thing I can say about skipping on Campbell is that his college coach is now coaching our line so maybe he knew some things that he didn't like. They've watched the tape, I haven't, but I'm kind of scratching my head here ... no help on defense?
