The Official 2010 NFL Draft Thread: Round 1

At least we got a stater at LT....and didn't do anything stupid...thats a plus for the skins...remember 2 WR and a TE in the 2nd? a TE? and no OLINE help until too late?

Anyways...good news although it may be dead now that it was pre-draft chatter by a couple hours....
Redskins Insider - Redskins reportedly reach out to Saints regarding Jammal Brown (http://voices.washingtonpost.com/redskinsinsider/free-agency/redskins-reportedly-reach-out.html)
Skins talking to Jammal Brown.
It would be cool because if we got him, both our tackles would be from the same school

You mean the same Haynesworth that said:

"I mean, I wouldn't really say that," Haynesworth said. "We've got a good coach and all that stuff. Whatever they ask me to do, that's what I'm gonna do. I'm not gonna be a distraction or anything. I'm just gonna do what they ask me to do."

That's exactly what Haynesworth said in the only interview he's given since the season ended. I dont know where people get the "I don't want to play NT" quote from. He never said he didn't want to play the position, he let it be known it wasn't his prefered position, but that he would play wherever they wanted him to play. It's a made up story designed to give credence to whatever dislike some people (for various reasons) have for the man. I watched the interview so I know exactly what he said.

I have no regrets about Davis, I am still unsure about Kelly and Thomas.

Funny how so many people on this board think that "Big Love" Clausen is the next great one but every single team in the league passed on him.Every team passed on Brees and Favre in the first round. Almost all passed on Marino, Dan Fouts was a 3rd rounder. Just because a guy falls in the draft doesn't mean he's automatically garbage. Historically, 2nd rounders haven't fared too well. I expect Clausen will beat the trend like Brees and Favre.

As I said before, it's not just people on this site, the high-profile NFL Draft analysts all expect Clausen to be a good NFL QB.

Also, Kafka and Stull played weekly competiton that was superior or at least had parity with their own respective teams and got their teams into bowl games. A Stull or Kafka is more likely to make it in the NFL than a Tebow for the reasons mentioned in my previous post. Unlike the Magic 3, these not so known QB's can probably hold their own better. Give me a QB that actually made his team better than a QB on a loaded powerhouse playing inferior opponents most weekends.

Does someone have any info on how Trent Williams played last year? I hope we LT spot sown up.

ND today unfortunately isn't ND prior to the early 90s. There talent is on par or sub-par with their opponents.
