Our 2010 First Round Draft Pick Should Be...

this is my first post because i just had to chime in. u guys are all idiots.

the redskins need a new qb, three or four new ol-men, a number 1 receiver, a new tight end (cooleys has unbelievable stats for his marginal talent because jason campbell constantly checks down and doesnt throw the ball to wrs) TWO new running backs, ladell betts is garbage and clinton portis can make one cut and then falls down LOL! u need two new defensive ends because orakpo would be a beast but is running around covering people, i mean jarmon wouldnt be starting on any other nfc east team and everyone loves him just because hes new and young. a new mlb to replace 36 year old london fletcher. a shutdown corner. dangelo hall gets picks and returns them because hes fast but they are usually on tips or some bullshit not because he jumps routes (see asante samuels), and the asshole cant tackle for shit. horton is too stocky and slow to play safety in this league so a new ss... actually make that a new FS and let landry move over to ss.

i think that makes 14 players.

so after that venting... what the skins need to do is draft a LT or QB in the first round this year, and then go best player available every other round.... and then get a LT or +QB next year in the first round and go best available in all the other rounds once again.

I see your going to last a long time around here.

Here's a reality check... starting off on a forum by calling everyone an idiot probably isn't smart. That is if you care about sticking around.

For all those of you that want a QB in the 1st round, can you please tell me of a rookie QB that has been successful with an o-line that can't pass protect or run block?

I think people seem to forget that not only is our pass protection shot to shit, but our line can't run block. So you're going to put a rook QB to get shell shocked in front of a shitty line, without a good running game? Great, I can't wait for next season.

That being said, I would take a tackle with the first round pick. If a good QB is available, I would pick him up in the 2nd round. I think we can pick up a good RB in the 4th round. Also, let's not forget that our problems won't be solved with one draft.

Personally, I'd try to sucker a team into giving me round picks for Portis or anyone else we can afford to lose and can garner some picks. But that would require a change in the FO, which I pray it happens.

This isn't about what player to draft, but rather what position.

Seems like we're pretty split between OL or QB. I'm in the draft a QB in the first round camp, but wanted to see what the group thought.

I threw in RB just for added measure

Sorry Smooty, but according to the poll results 81% want O line. Qb is tempting for sure, but a nice new QB with a crappy line is a crappy QB. JC has basic mechanical problems, but the damn line just enhances those problems. Not to mention Portis isn't producing squat. In another thread I said that the '95-'97 squads really didn't suck all that bad, not compared to this one. I mean Terry Allen was one of the top rushers in '95-'96. Without a good line you can't run or pass, and that is what we are facing currently.

:nono:

Redskins QB 1st round
Cowboys QB UDF
Eagles QB 1st round
Giants QB 1st round

Bears QB 1st round
Lions QB 1st round
Packers QB 1st round
Vikings QB 2nd round(Farve)

Atlanta QB 1st round
Tampa Bay QB 1st round
Panthers QB UDF
Saints QB 1st

Cardinals QB UDF
49ers QB 1st(This Week)
Seahawks QB 6th round
Rams QB 6th round

10 first rounders, one second rounder, two sixth rounders, three UDF.

After doing this exercise, I think it is a good idea to take your QB in the first round.

drew brees was a 2nd rd pick

We're not talking about ignoring the line. Just talking about taking a QB in the first and then going OL most of the rest of the way

Well most of you are wrong :)

Seriously though, I get the sense some people think that of us who say take a QB first are saying ignore the line. And that's not the case, not from me at least. I mean I'm not opposed to going OL in the first and QB in the second. Really, I'm not. But, looking at this year's potential picks (and also peeking ahead as best as possible to the 2011 draft), I lean toward QB first

Ah a guy with my line of thinking. Trade Portis for multiple picks. I would even consider trading Haynesworth during an uncapped year for possible multiple #1 picks. Even multiple second rounders would be acceptable to me for both guys(try to get 3 picks for Al if they are second or thirds). I know getting rid of Al right away sounds nuts, but if you want to rebuild a line relatively quickly that is what you need to do. The newbie that called us idiots did make an excellent point after the collective insult. We really are looking at a massive overhaul, and to me getting multiple picks fast is the way to do it. We then have room to draft a QB, some DBs, etc. Big Al is earning his keep for sure, but unless we can score points and find a way to win, his services are useless.

Exactly. Look at how a guy like Jake Long has helped Miami. Or how the Jets O-line (a few first rounders) is helping out Sanchez. Actually, when I think about guys like David Carr and Patrick Ramsey, you could literally break a guys spirit by throwing him to the NFL wolves as a young QB with pathetic protection. Build the lines, everything else will follow.
