Would you like us to draft a running back in case Portis or Betts goes down or gets traded? That would benefit the Redskins longterm based on your theory.

Bottom line, we draft the best available player for the most pressing NEED. We're lucky to have # 6 that will be a STUD player. Don't trade away that opportunity.....top 10 defensive draft picks are as close to sure things pending health problems.

Would you like to tell us all who we should draft at 6 who would start for us from day one?

Neither Portis nor Betts are likely to be a cap casulty in the near future (within the next 2 offseasons). So no, RB would not be a good position to select.

I don't know what you are disagreeing with me for. The idea is to get the best possible player down the road. I think this will be Okoye or Branch, even though I think Griffin and Saleve'a should start at the DTs opening day. The pick should not play until he proves better than either of them. If you think we should select someone else, please explain why. Don't turn this into a pissing match.
