Re: The Redskins 2020 draft class

This may have already been mentioned, but the new CBA is clutch for Saadiq Charles's prospects. Dude likes weed, and the new CBA removes weed from the banned substances list. That will no longer count towards drug violation suspensions.

I think his infractions at LSU largely centered around weed, thus Rivera and Kyle's comfort with drafting him.

So we're sort of replacing our pot-smoking future HoF'er LT with a rookie pot-smoking LT.

And I know I know, Charles is not literally replacing Trent. Just making a bad joke.

I hope you're right, because I'm a firm believer the massive majority of athletes in any contact sport prefer weed to pills.

Re: The Redskins 2020 draft class

What I like most about this roster right now is there are only five players (Kerrigan, Sundberg, A. Smith, A. Peterson & Davis Sr) who are over 30, and there are 49 players who are 25 and younger.

We talking about Vernon Davis? His contract is up, he's gone.

The best thing about the skins, they are in the nfc East. We have a chance in this division

Re: The Redskins 2020 draft class

I'm thinking this is a season of "if's":

If the OL can gel then we have base for the offense.
If a solid #2 & #3 can emerge from the receivers group then Haskins has options in the passing game.
If one of the TE's (Moss?) can emerge as a reliable target Haskins has more options in the passing game.
If Gibson is Thompson 2.0 or even McCaffery 2.0 then Haskins has even more options in the passing game.
If Haskins is just a little improved on the end of last season we should be OK in the passing game. If a lot improved then who knows?
If at least 2 of the backs step up this year to compliment/supplant AP then the running game should be much improved.
If all of the above comes together then the O should at least be competitive.

If CY is the phenom we expect/hope then the whole DL play should be improved.
If the LB's can at least hold their own behind that DL (particularly in pass defense) then we should at least be competitive with our run defense and at least middling with pass.
If the secondary can improve just a little and take advantage of good DL play, then overall pass D should be middling at least.
If all that comes to pass we should have a good if not great D.

If all of this happens (yeah I know, big if) then we should be at least competitive if not challenging for the division. I can't see all of the above not happening. If only some of it happens I say 8-10 wins. If all of it comes about then maybe 10+. Right nwo I say 8-8 is a fair expectation.

Re: The Redskins 2020 draft class

I was really worried about TE AND OT, but the team roster is not written in concrete yet. WE WILL ADD PLAYERS LATE IN THE PS.
I see Kyle Smith picking up at least a couple of TE/ WR/ OT castoffs from other teams as training camp (if there is one) and the preseason progress. I see us picking up some good players from teams that are over-stacked in certain positions. The Bears have 10 TE’s for instance - when they make their last cuts that’s when Kyle and Rivera will scoop up some decent players for one-year, low salary contracts. If they are a bust, no problem, as we’ll just dump them. But we will find at least a couple of players like Flowers was last year, who have a break out season, into the average or better level - as they try to stay in the NFL.

The Redskins have a ton of cap that can move forward into next season. So I think this season, they will try some players who may not even be on the roster now, in short contracts- looking for some hidden diamonds that can be signed for longer contracts next year. I think the late PS pickups will do better than the UDFA and late draft picks. The Redskins will add 3-6 new players that are dropped by other teams, late in the PS. Especially in our weakest areas, like TE or OT. Some will be busts, but some will do far better that just being ST or third-string fodder.
