The kicker we got I think was a steal. Frosty was inconsistent and mediocre. Maybe a Punter wasn't the top need, but this dude can frickin kick.

I feel, like probably everyone else, if we would ahve gotten a bad ass DE, then it would have been an A+.

I give it an A- b/c I like ppretty much all of the picks. I watched all weekend. The only surprise to me was the Punter pickm but like I said, my feelings have changed.

I'll grade them a B for now. If somehow they can sign Erin Henderson and Marcus Dixon to FA contracts, then a solid A.

Seriously, I challenge anyone, not arrogantly, to look go back and remember the games we lost last year, and you'll find that the offense failed time and time again to convert in the Red Zone and at times had problems stretching the field.

Now some of that I'll certainly chalk up to JC growing curb, but still, we had issues offensively. Besides drafting the punter, I think my second favorite pick is Fred Davis.


When I think about it may favorite pick was both of the Wide Recievers after thinking about it, we really dont have a number 1. Moss is a good number 2 and ARE is a 3 at best, so these two guys Thomas and Kelly could end up being an extremely good tandem.

Seems like a solid B+. It could go either way, though. We needed a big possession wideout and between the two we should at least get one solid starter. I'm curious about getting a high rated tight end... I hope we have enough balls to go around. I thought we could've addressed the secondary a bit more, and I'm still not sure about the corner we picked up... or drafting a punter when we had more pressing needs and there were better values out there, but they probably know something more than I do...

I think B+

At first, I was surprised when the Redskins traded out of the first round. However, I was very happy with who Washington picked throughout the draft. Very well laid out plan by the "Command Staff" of the Redskins. I'm looking forward to this year and years to come.

Also, you have to look at our draft in the context of what our divisional opponents did and what holes they tried to fill.

Dallas stocked up on running backs. Has it occurred to anyone that after Marion Barber, they don't have much by way of back up running backs? It's worth keeping an eye on as the season unfolds.

You know if you look at the punter "almost" as defender, we may have gotten a pretty good deal.

Yeah, and the Giants beefed up their secondary, so it's good to get some weapons to challenge the champs.

A for the first day, B for the second day -> B+.

Time will tell if this was a good draft but I have a feeling that all of our first day picks well contribute from day one. And while the two safeties we drafted aren't something to celebrate I'm guessing at least one of them will be a decent role player.
