If the BPA that fills a need had a 2nd or 3rd grade then trade back

I wouldn't draft another DE or OLB or even ILB high this year.

If the Skins decide not to go NT then trade back last first early 2nd and then go RB G CB if that is how they grade out.

Our front 7 was gashed last year.

In fact, we were 29th in DVOA against the run: https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef

There were only 3 teams worse than us.

We need top shelf talent at all positions in our front 7.

As many holes as we have in our starting lineup, need and BPA will easily intersect at #13.
Plus throw in all of the QB desperate teams that WILL reach for a player that is not worthy. Plus we already have our QB.
The stars are aligning that at #13 there will be higher BPA value, not lower as you claim.

The Skins suffered after injuries before that D was coming on. A guy like Payne and the defense is almost elite.

Hankins would be a great signing

I try to stay level-headed in the off season and not get my hopes up but I'd reallllllllly like to see us nab Hankins.

Agreed.
Moreau was a rookie, can't expect him to show consistent starter play in his first season.
I like the fact that they have confidence in him. He's a 2 round pick.
I would have kept Breeland especially at 8M/y (and maybe his infection ends up making him sign here for a lot less), but Moreau was drafted to start.

Except a veteran on a cheap deal, I wouldn't sign any DBs. We have a strong group.

And a healthy DL, improved by either a signing or a pick, will help our D overall.

Any thoughts on a guard we could sign?

Based on Redskins's activities; my best guess is they are monitoring Lauvao's situation, potential cuts by other teams and draft. I don't expect us to sign best available guard in free agency. In the end, I think they will resign Lauvao to 1-2 years contract and draft a guard (any round) to compete in training camp.

I like the idea of drafting a guard. I feel it's a position you can expect decent play from year one.

I'm curious to see how things play out with Sua. If he stayed where would he best fit? Is he too slow for slot? Does he replace ZB on passing downs? If he's committed he could definitely help this defense, but if somehow they get a 3rd for him that will definitely help. We may even be able to fill the home in the secondary.

I agree with what others said about Nicholas he is the future although, he needs to stay healthy for full season. Also we have Fish Smithson, I think he can develop into dependable back-up. I won't be surprised if we will draft one player and/or sign undrafted free agents after the draft to compete.

Cravens - if we keep him, I'm certain he will make positive impact on defense every time we put him on the field. He is talented, simple as that.

I'm not too worried about Nicholson's health, he just had a nasty concussion.
As of now, we have no element leading us to think this could be repeating.

Didn't you just make the best argument that the depth on the d line isn't good enough, making it a need?

You know we have two edge guys under contract right now?
