[quote=Ruhskins;692880]I like it how very few people are mentioning that basically Jones has given up on Roy Williams and we can call that trade a colossal failure.[/quote]

Yeah, Jerry Jones just needs one more stamp on his draft card to qualify for Matt Millen status.

Best fits
Here are the five players who landed with teams that give them the best opportunity to maximize what they do best.

1. Gerald McCoy, DT, Tampa Bay (No. 3 overall)
2. Trent Williams, OT, Washington (No. 4)
3. Maurkice Pouncey, G/C, Pittsburgh (No. 18)
4. Bryan Bulaga, OT, Green Bay (No. 23)
5. Dan Williams, DT, Arizona (No. 26)

[quote=Ruhskins;692839]After Clausen and McCoy go I would say.[/quote]

I wish the Redskins had traded Haynesworth to the Saints for the 32nd pick and then drafted Clausen.

Fat Albert would have helped the Saints more than a rookie ? cornerback.

Yeah, but that wasn't likely to happen. As for the Saints pick, they needed another CB. They were ranked 25th in total yards (357.8) and 26th in pass yds (235.6)

Trent Williams's Madden attributes should be off the charts. The more I think about this guy, the more I like him. His versatility pretty much ensures that he'll start somewhere on the OL. And he projects to be a solid NFL OT.

Nice to see you coming around :)

I'm really impressed with Malcolm Kelly taking younger guys under his wing too. Go Skins!

i really think green bay got a great player in bulaga. i never really wanted him as our LT but i think at RT he def helps A-rogers a ton.

Re: Shanahan: Williams is a natural for zone-blocking scheme
 

The one thing that Shanny said in that first article Matty posted that I really don't like is that he already has Williams penciled in at LT. If a lack of motivation is the main knock on this kid I think you need to at least come out and say that he needs to work to earn that starting spot even if you don't really mean it. That said, I think we do have a good support system for Williams and I think he will be good.

And Dirtbag, as for the nickname, I think you need to emphasize the L and sort of drop the R when yelling it. "SIIILLLLLLLLLLVVVABAAAAAAAACK!!!"

Re: Shanahan: Williams is a natural for zone-blocking scheme
 

I am glad we picked a LT but it hard to get exicited about OL picks. Even when we picked Lavar and Samuals, I was all pumped about Lavar and was like oh yeah that Chris guy too.

I know Chris was the much better pick but I don't know. Maybe it is like this when you buy a new hot water heater for your house, you needed it but really it is not an exciting purchase.

But really how often do you yell out OL names during a game, I personally never have.

I don't think you would be as concerned if you watched Shanahan's 2 videos on Redskins.com. He does a lot of the "he has to prove himself", "you hope he's a starter but he has to prove it on the field", type comments. MS just doesn't seem like he's going to "give" anyone a spot.
