Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

I agree with the need to address the defensive line, but it seems that this draft is loaded with offensive linemen. Well I would say that we should draft an O-lineman or D-lineman with our first pick. In regards to the CB situation (if Spring leaves), should the Skins consider Asante Samuel? I don't think our CB situation could be solved with the draft, and should Spring were to leave, we'll be very thin at that position.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

OFFENSIVE LINE! We really tend to fall apart when we lose a starter. While GW seems to keep things together when we are short on the defensive side of the ball. We also really need a running back.....portis looks slower every year, and betts just isnt a starter in my opinion. If we are gonna play "redskins football" we must address o-line and RB.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

There are alot of running backs out there and the most suited for "Redskins Football" so to speak would have to be Rashard Mendenhall out of Illinois, but seriously Wide Reciever is a more pressing issue than the running back position is.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

i'm not up on campbell... i think harvey is a much better player, or kenny for miami might make a difference immediately too.

ghoulston is the crazy beast of the draft. too bad we can't get him.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

Did you guys know that we have a 6'5 235 pound wideout who runs a 4.51 40...... And he never got a single rep on offense. But McCardell came on the team and played on day 1. Maybe this new coach might be a benefit in the fact that there'll probably be open competition for almost every position. ARE could be like Wes Welker in the slot.

there's probably a reason he hasn't played. he's just not very good.

I think the Skins biggest need is WR if they dont get one in FA but at the same time the one player I would love for the Redskins to get is Chris Long. The kid has a non stop motor and makes countless plays in every game despite countless double teams. HTTR.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

Since Spagnolo is going to be our next head coach we need to get DE like he had in New York.

Re: Top priority for the 2008 draft

any type of line help. on both sides of the ball. and if someone brings up size in a wide out again, there should be a 3 month ban. since when CANT Santana get deep anymore?
