Overall Draft Grade for the Redskins

I gave a B. I like the picks but like many folks would have liked to see more D line taken. A good job was done in selecting talent from each round. Immediate needs were not really addressed, big WR being the exception, but I see a lot of the future from these picks.

It's real simple.
I hear Riggo singing the praises of the Skins recent draft. He re-iterates the apparent praises of the Skins draft from "Jaws". His next statement says it all regarding the negativity surrounding same.
"Non-football" people often make mistakes about such things............................well said

It's just really nice to hear some people giving the Skins credit. I'm a little nervous about some of the picks, but a lot of people in the know have good things to say.

But don't you think healthy WRs that can get open will only help Campbell as he gains more experience.

The problem is if the o-line can't protect JC to give him time to find the open receiver. The last thing we need is for JC to take a beating and have a major injury.

Great offensive lines are critical. An average receiver can get open if he has enough time. Most corners can cover any receiver if they know they only need to cover the guy for 3 seconds because that is all the time their defensive line will need to get to the QB. Of all fans we should know that with the Hogs. They could make any QB look good because they could sit back and wait for someone to get open. Before last year, Brady never really had a superstar WR but he had a great line and could just pick defenses apart. Superbowl time he got pressured and even with Moss he failed. Romo was lights out until his line got injured and he started getting pressured.

The way some people talk here you'd think we didn't have Samuels, Kendall, Rabach, Thomas, and Jansen starting.

"But they're getting old, and can they stay healthy?" Fine, but it's not like ARE and Moss have found the fountain of youth or have shown a propensity to stay healthy.

Most great receivers can still play at about the same level once they hit 30+. That is not true in general for the offensive line since they are more prone to knee/leg injuries and it catches up to them. Jansen is great, but missed all of last year and who knows how he will be when he gets back. Thomas also missed most of last year. If you could guarantee these 5 will stay healthy all year then I would be happy, but the reality is that it is very doubtful they will.

I have no problems with the guys drafted and think they have potential. I just think Snyder was overzealous with wanting a big game receiver and put all his chips in one basket. I was happy with Thomas and thought trading down was a great move. I just think drafting a second TE and another receiver instead of a defensive or offensive lineman was iffy. Finding a second TE to play in those packages that require a second TE is not as critical as having a dependable lineman that plays every down IMO.

Well until someone can prove their a better LT than Samuels, that job is his. Heyer and Alexander have a ways to go but they have plenty of promise. So do Rinehart and this guy they got from Appalachian State.

You've got to have some faith in Joe Bugel. He's proven himself for over two decades as a coach.

It doesn't matter if you have all day to throw if you have no one to throw to

i voted B cause i think they did very well but not earth shattering but solid all in all..
