late second (from trade): Derron Smith, FS, Fresno St.

40% of the OL overhauled before even the 40th pick

What are going to do about not having a decent safety or pass rush?

I only posted through two rounds. Safety was one of my picks. Please look again.

As for pass rush, I would use our 3rd round pick on Trey Flowers, DE from Arkansas.

switch to a 4-3 defense, with Kerrigan, and Hatcher as the Defensive Ends..... OLB Murphy and Riley MLB Robinson

add a great player or two to the front 7, get a good veteran FS, and draft another SS

trading down is a must, there are several great player in the top 10 worth trading up for, however it is going to take more than one or two good draft picks to turn things around.... they need 5 draft picks to contribute, and at least 5 good free agents

If we switched to a 4-3 Hatcher would be a DT, not a DE

In 2011, didn't we trade out of the 10th pick and move down? How'd that work out? I think JJ Watt was sitting there at that spot and we lost out on that pick. Not a fan of trading back in the first round. Get the best player. Hopefully that's a dominant player. Landon Collins reminds me of Landry, great hitter, great player in the box, but can he cover Zac Ertz? Shit, that dude had like 15 catches yesterday. Not sure Collins is that guy.

The problem with taking the best player available is the Redskins cannot tell who he is.....New England has built their team by trading back

So did Bobby Beathard.

I want a dominant lineman. Don't care which side.

I would much rather see us get a DT or DE rather offensive lineman in the first pick. We are alarmingly aging on the defense side of the ball and a young powerful defensive lineman would be a great installment to our young linebackers and secondary

I feel like a stud RT would go a long way too. But like I said I wouldn't hate a pick from either side. We definitely need to beef up both lines.

Skins need a Khalil Mack clone to complement Kerrigan.

Agree about DT or OT, and DO think we need a DE, but this franchise can't afford a bust at DE since that position is alarmingly high with them:

I 100% agree that we need better pass rushers, but that's a position we need to take a chance on after we've rebuilt the offensive line and defensive line.

I don't think I want to use a top 10 pick on a RT when I can get someone that can just be a wrecking ball in the backfield and allow Kerrigan to get close to 20 sacks a season.

[VTSkins1961]

OL, DL, or S best player available

Kerrigan is a good player and has proven a lot to me this year... But I highly doubt he will ever be close to 20 sacks in one year.

He still is doing a great job this year and has definitely proved his worth this year.
