Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan
 

We clearly made the wrong selection...
Taken from Walter Football:
[quote]Washington failed to draft a quarterback on Thursday and Friday, prompting Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen to report that the team plans on going with John Beck in 2011. Translation: The Redskins will have the No. 1 pick in the 2012 NFL Draft.

The Redskins had some really good picks. They also had some really questionable selections. As far as the pure prospects are concerned, the draft was pretty average. Having said that, I'm really befuddled by Bruce Allen's decision not to acquire a quarterback or much offensive line help. Beck doesn't stand a chance behind Washington's pathetic front.

What saves Washington from an abysmal grade is its plethora of trade downs. I loved that. That said, Allen and Mike Shanahan may have just locked up Andrew Luck. Maybe that's their plan.

Haha, Walter can go suck it. High round QBs are LONG-TERM investments. You're stuck with whomever you selected for about 3 or more years. If he stinks it up, you ain't picking another one high in the draft for about 3 or more years. Quite frankly, out of the very short excerpts I watch about Gabbert and Locker, both were INADEQUATE, imo.

It still amazes me how some football analysts can blindly say that a team, who has a bunch of needs that affect QB such as running back, receivers and o-line, should reach for a QB just to take a QB.

Walter Football is extremely unreliable in terms of analyses of drafts, mock drafts, and player ratings. The only reason I ever go there is to find objective data like 40 times.

Matt Williamson liked the Kerrigan pick as well, and he's been hyper critical of everything the Redskins have done.

It would be interesting to see who we draft if this was the scenario.

Yeah no thanks. The drop off between Kerrigan and players like Brooks Reid and Akem Ayers is to high. I invoke the "beast" defense in that I simply explain away the trade by calling Kerrigan a beast.

Well, the season haven't started yet.... But yeah you are right, there is no question that Kerrigan is good pick.

No you're wrong Kerrigans a BEAST! See what I did there pretty effective debating huh? Oh wait you were agreeing with me. Crap. Your debate skills are BEAST!

Lol Kerrigan most definitely will be a good player, however, being a beast still remains to be seen.
