Just because ESPN or whatever ranks those other players higher, doesn't mean they are better. NFL teams know more about these guys than the media. Its a fifth round pick. No players are really looking that good coming out of the fifth round.

This guy was a running back for most of college and only played 9 games at linebacker. He showed some flashes in those games, but he is very inexperienced. I don't know if he is going to get good or not, but I'll give the Redskins the benefit of the doubt. The Redskins draft picks have been pretty good lately, (they just haven't had enough of them) so I actually sort of trust them when it comes to players they actually draft.

I am quite surprised this did not set off another 10 pages rehashing the early 2000's

I couldn't agree with you more! If Buges had seen a lineman he wanted in the 5th round...he would have gotten picked! Herman Jihnson is projected as a G since he doesn't have the feet/agility to be a T. Maybe the Todd Wade experiment was enough for us to give up on the concept of 6'8" guards. Bottom line, this guy was picked to be a special teams contributor (Khary Campbell hasn't re-signed). If he eventually turns into starting material, unlikely,...that would be an unexpected bonus. Some of these other "fans" need to get over their "get an OL at any cost/any reach" complex!!!!!
