Redskins Pre-Draft Visits

[Bangee7]

This is more of a question than a comment, but I am a bit confused.......

After reading the McL article where he likes to look guys in the eye to see if they're passionate about football........
does that imply he (or the staff) has interviewed each player they draft?


Here's an article from a year ago, that tracked a lot of the pre-draft visits.

2015 NFL Draft: Tracking the Redskins Pre-Draft Meetings, Visits, and Workouts - Hogs Haven

From the list above, I only recognize Scherff & Halliday, but maybe a I missed another 1-2 that we went after. Either way, it's a low percentage.

I'm guessing a lot of the discussions during Senior Bowl or even the combine might not be recorded.

I'm equally sure that many of these visits are "smoke screens" to throw other teams off, but again the "look them in the eye" thing has me a little confused if that counts for every draft pick or just the marquee rounds.

I would appreciate hearing other thoughts on this.

Thanks.
