Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

According to this link the Redskins have the 10th overall pick in the 2011 draft. So now that we know where we're picking, what do our options look like? If the info on SBNation is right, we are behind the Panthers, Broncos, Bills, Bengals, Cardinals, Browns, 49ers, Titans, and Cowboys in that order. I still think we go qb if a decent one is available, and if one isn't we go for BPA.

Looking at that list we can assume the Panthers, Bills, Bengals, Cardinals, and 49ers will either definitely want a qb upgrade or might be interested if the right one presents itself. None of those are a given though, the Panthers might be interested in sticking with Clausen, same with the Bills and Fitzpatrick, and maybe Cincy with Palmer, but I do feel the Cards will def. seek an upgrade either through draft or fa, and same with the 9ers.

I still believe Andrew Luck is intent on going back to Stanford for his senior year, but I won't say it's not possible because anything can happen. When looking at all this data what do you guys think are the odds that we just get a stopgap option in free agency or stick with Grossman knowing his evaluation period is over and wait till' 2012 to go more long term? I think there's a lot of qb needy teams ahead of us in the draft this year and by the time our turn comes around we might be sol.

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

I think the 2011 QB class is quite poor and if Luck doesn't come out it gets much worse imho. That, of course, will not stop alot of GM's from rolling the dice! Though there are some nice propects out there there are no sure fire #1's save Luck. jm2c, of course!

I'd wait till 2012 where the pick'ins are much better!

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

You listed 5 teams that need a QB..... 5 good QB prospects in this updcoming draft dont exist. OL & DL should be 75% of our picks. Re-sign Moss, keep AA, work out T. Austin, see if Malcom Kelly will give you anything. Bring back Rogers & Rocky.Let Chris Wilson, anthony bryant, Jeremy Jarmon, Rob Jackson compete for starting positions. We NEED a C and RT....and DL. NO MORE QB TALK UNTIL 2012.....beef up the LINES for a change PLEASE!!!!

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

Build the lines. Give me a physical run blocking OL that likes to knock the snot out defenses and that can pass protect of course. A consistent running game will be huge asset THAT we have not had in a while. MAKES EVERYTHING ELSE SO MUCH EASIER.
How about a defensive line that can consistently stop the run and generate a strong pass rush with out blitzing? What a concept!
Then a stud FS to compliment Dirty 30.
If we can do that and we will be a playoff team.
The Jets, Ravens, Steelers and Patriots have strong lines and they will contend this playoffs. It is cold and windy. Run the ball and stop the run. Playoff football.

I love the draft. I just hope we have some newer and better intelligence scouting for the team now.

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

Give me a QB for the next 10 years. Specifically Jake Locker. Drafting a Guard or Center at 10 is a huge reach, especially when you consider the fact that we not only have a second round pick this year but the last Second Round Guard drafted by Shanahan, our very own Lennie Friedman. For better or worse free agency will address the immediate concerns along the O-Line.

You bastards. You **** teases. You wretched ingrates! This happens every year. And this is not just directed at gafinfan. This is all of you! Even though we weren't looking for a QB in 2008 we still had people saying that the 2008 QB class was terrible (*cough* Matt Ryan Joe Flacco *cough). Wait till next year they said. Then 2009 roles around (Josh Freeman, Matt Stafford). Oh no that class is terrible, wait till next year that class will be much better.

2010 roles around, the first year we really start looking for a new QB. Now I can deal with 2008 and 2009. However I was promised in writing that the 2011 QB class was going to be amazing. I was frequently told that 2011 was the year we would have our pick from a flurry of QB's. 2011 was going to be the year of the Quarterback. So you know what we dealt with not getting Bradford and McCoy and maybe we lucked out on Clausen. Heck even Tebow looks like a potential Franchise QB at this point.

And now it's 2011 and what do I hear? Wait till 2012. I don't know about you guys but I'm starting to sense some sort of pattern here (except with Ruhskisn, as he has remained consistent from last year on his promise to me of QB nirvana).

At this rate we're not going to get a QB worth protecting until Trent is retired along with the 7 other first round fat boys you guys are drafting over the course of the next 7 years (4 OL, 3 DL). Now if you'll excuse me I have to go dial 911 as I'm experiencing chest problems as well as shooting pains in my arm.

PS - It should go without saying but just in case, this piece is written with a tongue in cheek tone. I believe none of you to be wrechted ingrates or cock teases. Nor are any of you bastards.

Best Player Available. We have holes all over the place, get the best talent you can. Personally, I would love to see a big NT be drafted, but they don't grow on trees.

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

We should trade down for more picks, then draft O line or D line with the top 3 picks that we have. I am not sold on any of the quarter's after Luck and truth be told remember how high everyone was on Locker last year and now look at how they feel about him. This is not to say he won’t be good but we need to build an O line before we even think about trying to bring a quarterback here. Rex has only been in the league 8 years he knows the system he could be a good stop gap until we put things together. We are not going anywhere right now anyway. We need to rebuild the right way which takes time and good drafting sprinkle in a few young free agents, and then we may have something to talk about.

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

With so many holes to fill I'm sure we all have a wish list when it comes to the draft. How active, and who we pursue during the free agency period will have a major impact on the draft strategy. It's not difficult to see where the team needs are. I would start by concentrating on both the offensive and defensive lines, most of all sorting out the QB situation.

Re: Skins have 10th overall selection. Who do we pick?

I want a new Center!!! Maybe not with that 10th pick, but we have to upgrade that push up the middle. Rabach has to go. I can't even run up the middle in Madden 11 because Rabach is so bad. Grossman made some plays yesterday, but he can't feel the heat and is NOT the answer at QB. I saw the same thing out of him yesterday that teases everyone about him. Strong arm, quick reads, but can't feel the heat, so the sack/fumbles happen too often.

the skins can't wait until 2012 to draft a QB.the 2011 draft should be used to get a QB,OL,RB and WR [in that order].the defence can be upgraded with free agents.
