Redskins Draft Analysis From Around the Interwebs

[bigdaddy2348]

My initial thought on Davis was we need defensive help to bad however if we can get some gem in the latter rounds we should be ok also the will be undrafted free agents and June 1 cuts we also can sift through

Mel Kiper picked us to spotlight, saying that we had an excellent draft. I was also listening to Sirius NFL radio, and they said "Watch out for the new Redskins weapons" and said we had a great draft.

I agree with them.

Hey, at least the draft analysts are happy. That's worth...what, 3-4 wins in the standings?

I think our draft will be defined by the 2nd day players; namely the quality and holes that the next 2 picks fill.

As opposed to the opinions of the armchair GM fans?

It's a push.

How quickly we forget how our inept our offense was last year. All the crying last year, if we had a big Red Zone target for J.C., if only Moss could stay healthy, Cooley needs some help and so on....boy, memories sure are short around here.

And didn't we go half way through last season with no TDs for our WRs?

It's funny, at the end of last season a lot of people agreed we needed a serious upgrade at the WR spot and more weapons for JC in general. Moss hasn't done much since 2005 and ARE while solid doesn't exactly scare anyone on a consistent basis. Fast forward to this weekend and it seems that most people have forgotten about how mediocre our WRs were. For some strange reason people have convinced themselves the defense was the problem last year.

I honestly think our offense is going to run a lot better now with a bigger target at WR. I also think Devin Thomas is going to help Randle El be more of a factor on punt returns and let him get a breather every once in a while. A luxury ARE didn't have last year.

The Skins are giving every chance for JC to become a pro bowler...unlike other QB prospects we have had. Yes I like the Draft picks but I was Surprised we did not get a DE but the TE pick allows us to line up in two TE sets and go down the field or run.

I think there is no need to question our moves. We have done well for ourselves! Now that being said if the second day of drafting we select more WR's then I would worry.

I would like to see us pick up Jason Taylor who would be available for a 3rd or 4th pick as was said by the experts. He could play for a couple of years and give us time to get a young DE to learn from the past Defensive MVP!

excellent draft. We had the 8th ranked defense last year.They can pick up help for it today.Great job vinny!!!!!!!!!!!

Cp Is Going To Have A Monster Year

Looking good so far, our offense needs help our WR need to score TD's, stop the crying it's a great time to be a REDSKINS FAN HAIL TO THE SKINS!

[skinsfan69]

We're not going to be able to tell if this is a good draft until a year or two down the line. Everything else is just speculation.

[Skinny Tee]

There are some people who need to be called down from the ledge here. This isn't going to be our last draft for life. I'm sure there plans to implement these guys into our offense. Also free agency and the draft take place every year. We can always use our draft next year to shore up the O-line.

I can't complain with how the draft turned out. I'm pleased with the picks. Sounds like we got some great new talents

First rule of being a Skins fan, some people are never happy no matter what. It's best to just ignore them.
