Can never have too many weapons. We do need another honestly but I'd rather get that defense first

Marquis Goodwin is prob the fastest player in the draft.

He and Tavon Austin

I'd keep an eye on Andre Ellington and Josh Boyce

[SmootSmack]

Justin Hunter too

Andre Ellington was a monster last year at Clemson. I would love to see him in the Burgundy and Gold. Reading his scout profile says Shanny-type back all over him:

Possesses above-average straight-line speed. Attacks the line of scrimmage in one-back formations. Good vision and foot quickness for the cutback, has a burst through the hole and can accelerate away from oncoming defenders. Tough for college safeties to get an angle on. Excellent balance in the open field to cut, put his hand on the ground to stay upright, or even leap sprawling defenders. Runs with some lean for his size, and he lowers his pads pre-contact to get an extra yard. Takes big hits and bounces back up. Tight-ropes the sideline when necessary to maximize runs. Shows the ability to create behind the line of scrimmage when the play side breaks down, and the creativity and knowledge of pursuit angles to set up second level defenders. Shows patience running behind pulling guards and fullbacks, can cut in either direction off the block. Stiff-arm in the open field can be effective in keeping away defensive backs. Very dangerous in space. Good hands to be a threat as a receiver in the flat, over the middle, on screens, and down the sideline on wheel routes. Dangerous kick returner who can slide through creases and explode into the open with quick cuts and pure acceleration.

Now you're talking! Hunter has it all now that he has regained his speed. The Skins might need to move up if they want to get him.

we won't be 'moving up' to get someone. We have little picks as it is. We are staying at 51 or moving down.

Ellington is a speedster; the kind of back we need.


Boyce is a Hakeem Nicks type of physical WR. He and RG3 were teammates in high school.

Boyce is someone we can get in the 4-5th round range.

Don't be so sure of that. If they decide that Hunter is the playmaker they want, they'll have to move up to get him. Much more dramatic moves have been made in the draft.

In fact, I'm so sure that the Skins will go after the specific players they want this time around that I'll predict right now that the Skins will move up at some point in this year's draft to pick a player they want. They might even trade a future pick to do so (and don't call me Vinny).

6'4" 4.44 40 time almost 40 inches on the vertical. I would welcome him but if we pick him I hope we go defense with the next 2 picks.

[Alvin Walton]

2nd Baccari Rambo S
3rd David Amerson CB
4th David Quessenberry OL
5th Duke Williams S
5th Reid Fragel OL
6th Jake Knott LB
7th Denard Robinson RB/WR/KR

Torn ACL in 2010 which hurt his speed since then noticeably. And he has Julio jones hands. Not saying I don't want him but Id go DB over him unless all the ones I like are gone.


Also have a crazy suspicion that we will draft Duke Williams before the 4th round.

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

So with the news of us possibly going playmaker let me re-do a draft. One with Hunter one with Ellington.

2nd: Justin Hunter (I feel we would have to move up for him)
3rd: Phillip Thomas
4th: B.W. Webb
5th: Xavier Nixon
6th: Kenjon Barner
7th: Ray Ray Armstrong

other 5th was used to move up for Hunter

2nd: DJ Hayden
3rd: Andre Ellington
4th: Duke Williams
5th: Jon Bostic
5th: Xavier Nixon
6th: Kenjon Barner
7th: Ray Ray Armstrong

1.Don't take what I'm suggesting as gospel

2. We've been very vocal about wanting Duke Williams that I question the seriousness

3. Duke may end up going in the 3rd

4. We're not trading up from 51, that I can pretty much guarantee (I think)
