Redskins Draft Analysis Thread

Talk about a weak arm.. Yikes

I wasn't saying I like Clausen...just that he has outworn his welcome elsewhere and is a young QB.

Instead of Gomes we could have nabbed Yates or Enderle in the 5th round. Perhaps we should have done that.

Yeah whats up with the NEBRASKA love? I think we should have drafted Mallett and still do.

Mallett's character red-flags were obviously pretty serious. Serious enough that a top 10 talent fell into the 3rd round. So even if he wasn't an alleged coke-head, what is it about a 6'7" statue of a QB that fits Mike/Kyle Shanahan's offense?

^ Matt Schaub fits KS offense and Rex isn't exactly mike Vick.

Schaub and Rex both have pretty decent mobility. Mallett has stone legs.

Umm Jared Allen, Clay Matthews, Justin Smith are all white and are all damn good DE/LB's.. Clay may be the best OLB in football outside of Ware.

I think Kerrigan is a solid player but a guy that has limits due to his speed, he's not a great athlete either. I'm thinking a Kyle Vanden Bosh type guy

This is all AFTER they proved themselves. What were the views on these players right when they were drafted?

BTW, Vanden's Bosch's 40 time was a 4.76. If we're considering 40 times, Kerrigan is a better athlete than Vanden Bosch.

What is a cow without legs? Ground beef? What is a Mallett without Redskins? A cokehead that ain't in burgundy and gold baby!!!

I don't get why people wanted him so bad. He has such bad character and its obvious since so many teams passed up on him. He has zero mobility and is not a good fit for this system.

People just start spouting off they want QB's just for the sake of having a QB because we have a need. You've wasted a pick if you get a QB that doesn't fit your scheme, especially one with a coke background and a bunch of red flags.

Keyshawn Johnson says C'mon man!

Other than his arm, I don't see anything else that makes Mallett an attractive candidate to our team. I don't think we can deal with players with character problems and we have a mediocre line. It is obvious that Shanahan believes that we don't need to address our QB situation through the draft. I do hope he has a plan to deal with this situation.

Barnes, Hall, Otogwe, Landry, Orakpo, Fletcher, Riley, Kerrigan, Carriker, Bryant, Jenkins. I think that is a pretty solid defense. Need to build some LB depth and hopefully resign Buchannon. Neild will form a nice little rotation with Bryant.

Hankerson, Armstrong, Williams, Lichtensteiger, Cook, Hurt, Capers, Cooley, Torrain, Sellers, Beck/Grossman. Let the young guys play on the O-line and see who we can keep going into the following seasons. I really hope Malcom Kelly can play this year, i still think he is going to turn out being a good asset. And i think the guys we drafted are going to be great slot receivers.

I'm not concerned we didn't draft more than one OL. We have youth at the OL position.



I'm still concerned about our O-line... I trust Shanny, but is Rabach still our starting center? He is turning 34 this season. Or is it Licht/Will Montgomery? Can Cook ever break the active roster? And Jamaal Brown - he's a free agent and probably wants a left tackle contract/money. I hope he stays, but if he leaves we're really screwed.

Just saying - our O-line has moving parts as always, and seems as unstable as usual. Would've like to see a few O-line drafted every year.
