Redskins wisely turn attention to O-line - NFC East Blog - ESPN

I'm just going to say the draft team did an excellent job last year. So, i'll trust their thoughts on players this year as well.

Love how everyone one is a GM and college scout. It's one thing to question time management, play calling and even FA signings. They had a good draft last year so I will hold back all of criticisms on this draft for a while.

I refrain from criticizing the players themselves, as you said, they definitely know more than us but one thing that even a novice can question is the logic behind taking a guy with a high rnd pick that would have been available later. The fact that the guy ate himself off his team for a year tells me he would have still been there in the later rounds. I really hope this guy works out. With all the high round picks we traded away for Griffin we definitely needed to land a future starter with this pick. Hopefully we did that.

Anyone know how BMW is doing? I kind of felt like as soon as his career ended was going to gain all his weight back in like 6 months.

Looks like I was wrong on that. But he did gain the weight.

Lifestyle change. Simply moving from being mostly sedentary to doing cardio and getting back to training and practice will started increasing the calorie consumption rate. This is not a chronic issue with him.

3rd round is not the place to put hopes on ANYONE being a sure starter. Simply because you want or need something doesn't mean you'll get it. And it was academic ineligibility.

Interesting choice. Know he was a guy they liked, but they had been supposedly looking at him for the 5th-6th round. Then again, they were considering Wilson around there too and he's already gone.

Gives them some flexibility on the interior but not the move I would have made

I love how people already have decided Aldrick Robinson is a failed pick
