The "we should have takens"

Okung was/is the better pick over Williams. This FO does some strange sh!t...but hey they could get lucky!

I kept saying Minnifield right from the 5th round on.. Glad to see him sign.

We should have taken cousins in the third. But we were patient and got him in the 4th. Way to go skins!

Kirk Cousins was projected to be drafted in the second round and many general managers had a 1st round grade on him. He was certainly expected to be drafted before Nick Foles, who was taken in the 3rd round by the Eagles. How Cousins fell to the 4th round no one knows. But getting him there was certainly a steal for the Redskins.

We should have taken a left at Albuquerque

:lol:

that was friggin hilarious...lol

The Cousins choice was a great pick, New England style. Two or three years from now we trade him for a second or first round draft choice or four years from now he becomes a free agent and we get a third round compensatory pick for him. We are finally seeing the big picture in Washington. We save 1.3 million in cap space(cutting John Beck), and get a quarterback for the legue minimum. Good back ups get as much a 5 million. WAY TO GO SKINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm very happy with the 9 draft selections the Redskins came away with. Other than RG3, there was no other player that I wanted them to draft.

Well said, if you read this post you shouldn't IMO have a problem with the Cousins PICK.

Another GREAT post IMO. :laughing2

Other than RGIII they went in many different directions than I thought they would (or even should) but at the end of the day, I'm pleased with our draft. We got our QB, we added OL depth, we drafted a potential replacement for Fletcher and got some competition for DB on the back end of the secondary. I wish they would have addressed RB and WR but I'm a skill position guy. I would have liked to have seen us address the slot WR position with a Joe Adams or Devon Wylie but we've allocated assets to that position in free agency so let's see what they turn into.
