The official 2008 draft discussion thread

[EARTHQUAKE2689]

Darrell Robertson is still there hopefully he will make it to our 7th round pick but I doubt it.

I like the Brennan pick. I mean some more o-line depth would have been nice, but I'm not the one making these decisions clearly.
I think the pick though is interesting, I don't think Brennan will ever be a starter in this league but you never know. I can't wait to see him in the preseason!

Mayock said something about him being hurt and being put on the IR and the Redskins getting a free year to develop him ... not really clear on what he was saying. Anyone have an idea? Did Brennan have an injury in the postseason?

I thought we would address DE in the middle rounds, but I guess not, there are still a couple good guys on the board though, like Tommy Blake, and Johnny Dingle.

No I didn't hear anything about that, but I do know he had surgery after their bowl game. He was on Rome Is Burning talking about it but he said that if he gets an opportunity to play next year he would be 100%.

Josh Barrett, Erin Henderson, and Darrell Robertson.. still all available...


WTF

Question - Let's say Jansen comes back and reclaims his starting spot, okay. So then you have Steph Heyer as a back-up, Chad Rinehart the other back-up, then maybe someone like Fabini and Todd Wade as back-ups? That's three. Did Puc get cut?

Who else, at this early stage, figures to be on the roster as a reserve?

Brennan is coming off hip surgery. He'll probably be good to go by camp.

Do you think the Redskins will ever draft a DE?

I would like to see us at least pick up someone in the 7th. Maybe Jason Jones, Jeremy Geathers or Marcus Howard.

He had a torn labrum in his hip just before the Senior Bowl I think. He just underwent surgery which will probably sideline him through the preseason. The feeling was that short term it would set him back, but for his long term prospects it was an absolute necessity.

Wow, I thought he be in training camp at least. Guess not.

I think I'd prefer a DT, or a run-stuffing DE. I know he's not all that popular but what Phillip Daniels brings to the team is really overlooked in my opinion, and we need the next PD.

LB might not be bad either. Has Ben Moffit been taken?

He might be

I LOVE the Brennan pick. I know you guys aren't high on him, but I watched him a lot this past year because I wanted to immerse myself in all things Hawaii since I went there, and he is a great QB. He needs a little work, but I think if (God forbid) anything happens to Campbell or he regresses, this could be a steal.

[Ruhskins]

Next two picks should be DT and DE
