The official 2008 draft discussion thread

He had a torn labrum in his hip just before the Senior Bowl I think. He just underwent surgery which will probably sideline him through the preseason. The feeling was that short term it would set him back, but for his long term prospects it was an absolute necessity.


Wow, I thought he be in training camp at least. Guess not.

Do you think the Redskins will ever draft a DE?

I would like to see us at least pick up someone in the 7th. Maybe Jason Jones, Jeremy Geathers or Marcus Howard.

I think I'd prefer a DT, or a run-stuffing DE. I know he's not all that popular but what Phillip Daniels brings to the team is really overlooked in my opinion, and we need the next PD.

LB might not be bad either. Has Ben Moffit been taken?

I LOVE the Brennan pick. I know you guys aren't high on him, but I watched him a lot this past year because I wanted to immerse myself in all things Hawaii since I went there, and he is a great QB. He needs a little work, but I think if (God forbid) anything happens to Campbell or he regresses, this could be a steal.

Next two picks should be DT and DE

silva, silva, silva!!! seventh round gem.

You know, this may sound silly but I think the Durant pick may end up being the best pick for us. Serisously. Hear me out.

Last year Frost was pretty good, but he had a lot of punts returned for good yardage. I would chalk that up to hang time issues. Our defense constantly started on a short field as a result. This pick may help out a great deal on the defensive side of the ball.

I wonder what was our opponents average starting field position after change of possesion?

Next three picks should be DT and DE

I just don't think we're going to get anything of value from those positions this late in the draft.
So if we are to go for those positions, go get the biggest badasses you can find and coach them up for a year or two then let them loose.

i would have taken j.d. booty before i would have taken colt brennan.

Booty is overrated. Brennan is a quality player that just needs little coaching to be special.
