CantonLegend 04-24-2009, 03:43 PM redskins are well on their way to putting together a good team
offensive line is the biggest issue and that could only help clinton portis and whoever the QB will be next season....several offensive tackle prospects in the first round
plus alex mack, max unger, duke robinson, and eric wood all as interior line prospects in the late first round or 2nd round
it just depends on which players are available at that time
tackle probably needs to be addressed in the first round because those are where the best prospects are
im not sure if the redskins have a pick in the 2nd round or not, but could definitly upgrade either center or guard with any of those players i mentioned
Monksdown 04-24-2009, 03:44 PM no 2nd this year my friend. thank JT.
CantonLegend 04-24-2009, 03:47 PM 3rd round prospects are just as enticing
eric wood might still be available
antoine caldwell
jonathan luigs
there arent nearly as many, but they are still talented and could upgrade just about any offensive line in the league

I think the interior of the line is more important right now than RT. Rabach had a subpar season, Thomas is injury riddled and getting old. Most fans in this forum mention that if you have a great DL like Haynesworth that you can dominate the trenches. The same applies the other way, if you have a great C/G then you can counteract a great DL and have the DE beat you.
I think a 2009 starting OL of this guys below would be sweet:
Samuels, Dockery, Mack, Devin Clark/Rinehart, Heyer/Jansen

You had it right with your first center.

it all depends
if you want to start with a passing team, its probably more beneficial to go after a tackle. they are the cornerstones of the offense and protect the most important asset(obviously not true for all teams lol)
tackles make good money because they deserve good money. You have to be big, very strong, and very quick to play tackle in the NFL and there arent many players that can do that....more and more tackles are being drafted in the later rounds and being converted to guards because they cant handle the rush on the outside
interior linemen are more important IMO because most plays take place from the inside out. the center is the only player to touch the ball every single play and if he gets pushed off balance then he ruins the entire play.
guards need to be quicker than tackles but rarely have to move backwards like tackles. most of their steps are forward and allow them to play off balance a little
if it were my pick, id take a tackle, but thats only because its so early in the first round
if it were later in round 1 or even in round 2, id take a top rated center or guard without looking back. especially from the crop of kids coming out this year
unless they make a trade back, the redskins need to take a tackle

Hell, we may need to trade up for a top 4.
CantonLegend 04-24-2009, 04:06 PM You had it right with your first center.
alex mack is my favorite player in the entire draft. if the draft went my way he would be #1 overall
he is, IMO, the best player in the entire draft and the safest, surest pick
very smart, very quick, strong, and has great hands
hes tall but he blocks low and his first and second steps are faster than any other center in the draft
eric wood is probably a little stronger, and max unger is probably a little quicker, but there isnt a better talent overall in the draft
any of the top centers in the draft would be great for the redskins at either center or guard
mack
unger
wood
robinson
caldwell
luigs
newton
they could all help and most of them will be available when the redskins pick
CantonLegend 04-24-2009, 04:09 PM Hell, we may need to trade up for a top 4.
i cant see any player in the top 4 being worth the trade up other than curry
michael oher and andre smith were both rated higher than jason smith and eugene monroe at the end of the season
the combine and offseason dropped them down on many draft boards, but they are still very talented
trading up isnt smart, especially in a very weak draft class

You sir are someone that gets it!! Mack is the smartest, baddest OL player in the draft. I guarantee that wherever he lands that he will make that OL much better overnight.
