And you actually think that mock from Kiper NOW means something..? Not hardly!

Last time I checked he has no affiliation with the Redskins! If we keep our position in the 1st and 3rd rounds there will be NO QB drafted by the SKINS.

Mike, I actually do think that Kiper's mock may mean something. Let me explain;
1) Kiper is getting info, 1st or 2nd hand, about each team's draft meetings. With all the access to reporters at espn (and especially to Smootsmack!) he's basing his mock on reports from the teams through inside sources.

2) Teams always try to send smoke screens & my HOPE is that we're getting the word out that we want Sanchez. Thus, if he falls to 13, Vinny can tell teams, "we really want this kid, it's gonna take a great offer for us to trade back."

On the other hand, we've become so used to the Skins biz leaking out early. So often a report from an unamed source becomes reality. I hope that is not the case, as I really don't want them to draft Sanchez.

No matter if we take Sanchez or even had Brady, we need a stronger O-line to protect whomever is calling the signals to allow time to execute the play effectively. I believe the best interest for the Redskin organization will be to take a OT in the first round should one fall to 13th. In the 3rd round, take a linebacker to groom. In the later rounds, we can look to pick up a DE to bring along. We have signed tendered players that will suffice in an already strong defense. Many of those players will thrive with the additon of Haynesworth commanding extra attention in the middle of the line. The only other scenario worth mentioning is if the Redskins trade picks (this years first and next years first) to jump up to the top of the draft to acquire Orakpo and try to pick up a backup OT later to supplement Jansen/Heyer. This would be a gamble, though. Your not always going to find a diamond in the rough like we did with Horton.

What are the odds he falls all the way down to 13 even if the Lions do pass on him?

I'm not going to "overmoderate" but I would say that "Intriguing Prospect" is kind of a vague thread title (I actually thought this was going to be about some small school, no-name that we should keep an eye on). Also, draft threads belong in the NFL Draft Central forum

Saving all of your overmoderating for the regular season? LOL.

Yeah, Thats what I thought. Someone like my diamond in the rough, BLAKE FREESE OLB. Minnosota State.

No, I dont see him developing into a quarterback even to the level of Jason Campbell. He certainly wouldn't start for us this year, and I question his decision making on the Field. He apears to me to be another Jamarcus Russell. From all the games I watched him over the last two seasons,(I live in the heart of SEC country), He typicly relies on his arm stregnth and doesn't make very good reads. I see him going top ten in the draft and never developing into a starter in the NFL.

[SouperMeister]

I have no interest in Matt Stafford, nor Mark Sanchez for that matter. If we give Jason Campbell a stronger line to protect him in the passing game, and if any of the young receivers drafted last year begin approaching the game as professionals, then Campbell and the offense will thrive, mark those words. I want the pick at #13 to be Andre Smith or Oher. Our defense is good enough to win, even with a lawn chair at SLB. The FO has failed Campbell - can we just let the kid stay in the same system for more than 2 years, and see what he develops into? Is that asking too much?

[redsk1]

Teams generally aren't going to tell MK sh**. Unless maybe it's the first pick or second..maybe. It's smoke screen time for GM's.

[Ruhskins]

Funny how the Redskins are meeting with Maualuga and no one has made a comment about it (I was expecting a whole new thread). Oh well, I thought I would bring it here to derail the QB talks.
