With the 5th pick in the draft the Washington Redskins select...

[rocnrik]

I would pick Cooper over every D player period..however he will not be there at #5..hopefully the skins pull off a trade move down a few picks and get extra #1 ..that way we can get DB Collins and a Dl/OLB ..we will have a pretty dang good defense .. problem with drafting offense without a QB we really don't have much anyway..what good is all the great wr if the Qb can't get them the ball..I would love to see Skins Go after Rivers..but not give away the house. Rivers throwing to our current WR corp would be very good!

As other s have stated I'm ALL in on SM mode......BPA, or his notion of it!

What makes you so sure he won't be there at 5??

He could go to Oakland at 4.

That he could, and what I love is either way I think Williams or Cooper will be available, and if both are gone thst means Mariota is on the board and a potential trade down.


I want Cooper though

I'm not sold on needing a top 5 WR, when's the last time a team won a SB with an elite WR? And if we draft a WR, let's get one that's taller than 6-1. Let's build a stingy defense, we have decent receivers right now. Oline and defense should be our focus.

QB's , LT's , Press -cover CB's and Pass rushers are hard to find after rd 2 . That is because very few have the physical skill set , size and speed , feet , hips to play those positions . Rb , C , G and WR's are more likely to be drafted in rds 4-5 .

LT's maybe, bit again every position CAN be found at any point in the draft

I'll be very surprised if Cooper slips by Jacksonville or Oakland.

Cooper is a solid pick at where we are in the draft, my only question is can he be physical and how he does in traffic. Because he will not get the same seperation he got in college and it was a luxary playing at Alabama. I was reading where Chris Carter said "you cant play bump and run because he is so fast out the break"...responses like that always gets my sideway stare because we know for a fact NFL cornerbacks dont lack speed or technique when it comes to jamming receivers. Secondaries in the SEC certainly do. I saw Alabama move him alot in the slot which is an advantage getting off the ball.

[Alvin Walton]

We have wide receivers.
Pass rushers we dont have .
I think what we will pick is pretty obvious.

[JoeRedskin]

Is it draft day yet?

[Schneed10]

Dose of reality: we suck.

We need more picks. I hope we trade down. But if we don't, I'm good with whatever McC decides is the BPA. Look at the players we have under contract in 2016 - we have needs at every position if you take a longer view.
