Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

Two points:
1) Looking back, we will compare Kerrigan (and 2nd round pick) to Blaine Gabbert. Time will tell if this was a good move.
2) Is Kerrigan much better than Cam Jordan? Jordan had a lot of hype..

different positions as well. i am glad we went with kerrigan over any 3-4 defensive end. kerrigan will be an impact player rushing the passer and freeing up orakpo. 3-4 defensive ends...i dont want them in the top half of the first round really, not as much of an impact position imo.

Jordan may have more potential and be better suited to the 3-4 defense, but Kerrigan is more solid, a safer pick, and can contribute early and often.

Also, while regarding gabbert, while we may look back and compare the trade, the rams passed on matt ryan and nobody seems to have a problem with that anymore. As long as we get "our" quarterback, whether it be this year in dalton or mallett, or next year in a guy like Luck or Barkley, it wont matter that we utilized this draft to build for years to come.

Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

I think its about the attitude. Like Anthony Armstrong at WR, they have a guy on defense who will plays every down like it was his last. AlsoHumble and not flashy. This sends the message that character means something again in Washington DC

I think we're going to draft Jenkins the DE out of Clemson and then trade back 7 million times.

Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

Seems like a pretty solid pick...hope he works out. More important are the solid 2nd round picks we picked up. Hopefully we address QB, OL, or WR with those picks and develop them for years to come...time to start building through the draft.

Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

is it just me or does shanny seem upset in this video? at least not the least bit happy. He had to know quinn would be gone. Maybe he really wanted Locker? Maybe Kerrigan really wasn't one of the 2-3 guys he was hoping to get (or maybe he was 3 and shanny just added that in as a freudian slip really hopping for the top 2)

youre talking about Shanahan. He could be getting "help" under the podium and he'd have the same face.

Exactly, this guy is a master of hiding his emotions so don't read into it

Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

Now we just need to swap both our 2nd rounders with the patriots first two 2nd rounders and take the shanahans qb of choice at 33.

Re: Redskins Made Smart Choice With Kerrigan

I gave it an A because I'm really not a hard grader. Not at all. It's just that the Redskins have screwed up so often before that I've never had a chance to give them an A. They filled a need at value and picked up a second round pick in the process. He wasn't BPA, but I'm not a staunch BPA guy. This is a good pick.

Likable white guy whose motor exceeds his measurables?
