Redskins could be interested in Adams, Wayne

Cromartie might drop to us, and he's a stud. He would be a nice CB pickup in the draft.

Nobody thought much of Lemar Marshall or Antonio Pierce when they were promoted to starter, and they're stars now, so hopefully, we have more buried treasure in our depth chart at the LB position.

I wish Cromartie would drop that far, but I doubt it. I saw it as a possibility until Florida State had their Pro Day where I understand he showed his a$$, well that's what ESPN reported. When they said that I got pissed because I thought with his injury he would drop to us. If he does then great but I don't see that happening. As far as linebacker, I say use the guys we have. Unless something special comes along at a great bargain.

We need a starter. I don't feel comfortable about finding a guaranteed starting LB in the 2nd round. I think Adams would be a great pickup.

Personally I'm more for drafting some young talent. Quite a few of the young linebackers in last year's draft worked out well.

if wayne and adams are the choices,lets go young because both of those guys are scrubs

I would personally rule those positions out. I think Fauria represents the blocking TE we need, plus there's Sellers, Cooley, Robert Johnson, and Manny White playing at the TE and H-Back positions.

I think DT is very settled with Griffin, Salavea'a, and Wynn comprising a 3-man rotation. Plus we still have young'ns there. I don't think these positions are priorities to address with our 2nd rounder, not when we have holes at Nickel and outside LB.

Good argument for drafting a cb first & I agree that w/springs near his twilight, we will need a guy in 2 years to start, probably will have to start this year some too.
DT & DE though are both areas of need. Daniels is old & If Evans leaves, we'll need some depth.

Okay, he has good numbers. What happened to him during his first two years? He had zero tackles.

I would assume he didn't start but that was in 2000 and 2001 I don't see why that would matter. Lemar only had 19 tackles in 2000 2001 and 2002 and he seems to be doing pretty good for himself.

We need a starter. I don't feel comfortable about finding a guaranteed starting LB in the 2nd round. I think Adams would be a great pickup.

I agree for the right price, however I think we have enough homegrown talent and there's enough in the draft.

I like Wayne for two years or so! Also get a good vet CB as well! You say why? Two reasons first if both are good players they will fit in nice with a already strong D! Second we can go into Aprils draft looking to draft the best player and not just for need! It's a win win thing!!! But the money has to be right to get those kind of player and we don't have a lot left. Still if there is a way to get it done Danny and Joe can!

Malcolm, I think I mentioned it in another thread, but I am with you on packaging some later round picks and moving up. How many of our 6th or 7th rounders ever make the team? Trade the whole draft and get a 1st rounder and then take the second day of the draft off!

packaging every pick we have will let us move up a whopping 7-8 spots in the second round, to pick #45 overall.

I like wayne too, he's not great, but pretty solid.

as far as the draft, best available... if a stud falls, pick him up, if not take the best value at a need position. CB makes a lot of sense with a current lack of DB depth and an old springs, and i'd be happy with an OL pick too since doc doesn't have a long term deal and a 6th starter is necessary (pucillo might be that 6th guy, but maybe not). LB depth is young right now, so getting a young guy for the long term isn't as important as gettign someone who can play right now.

what if we just sit in nickel the entire game (2 LBs, washington/marshall, with 3 safeties, Taylor, Pearson, and Archuleta)? it'd be like have 4 LBs or 3 safeties on the field at all times.
