Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

i'd take 2 or 3 offensive lineman, and 2 or 3 defensive backs, maybe a linebacker

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

Hightower shouldn't be difficult to re-sign if we want him.

Helu and Royster outplayed him anyway.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

Our needs are CB, FS, RT, G depth, ILB depth, Slot WR, 3 string RB, Backup QB

I think the order of teams for the Skins are S, RT, G, Depth at LB, CB. We can get a RB off the scrap heap and if all else fails sign Hightower to a one year deal and the cut him if he does look good in the preseason.

I really don't see what everyone sees in him. Yes he was good in the preseason but he only average 64.2 yards a game in 5 regular season starts. The young guns can do that.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

im hoping we can get either a starting safety or RT before the draft and then like move up in the second like Aristocrat said for a starter in the other spot.

I see a lot of trading around by BA, wouldnt surprise me if we get more picks. Biggest needs I see are Safety and OLine depth, I hope we can find a diamond in the rough at S.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

I am not sure they will resign hightower. With Helu and Royster playing as well as they did, they could bring in a lower round pick in the draft. As far as what they do, FA is going to be key with no 1st or 2nd as to what we do draft wise. I am sure they are looking to get Oline help from FA, then possibly add more picks in the 3rd and 4th to look for some Oline depth and maybe safety or corners in those rounds. Use the latter rounds to look for the Oline depth.

We really dont need to draft for Dline, LB's, RB's, WR, or TE.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

Mark my words, a RB will be drafted by the Redskins in 2012. Weather or not we need one is irrelevant.

Very true, theres always a position or 2 that we draft even though we're filled up with them on our roster.

TE, SS, OLB in years past.

Any position is up for grabs in this years draft. I know BA said he drafts BPA and not position of need.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

If somehow we could package our third and one of our fourths to get him, I would move into the second to take OT Mike Adams. He could start quickly at RT.

Barring that unlikely scenario, I'd take:
3rd Bobby Massie OT Ole Miss - has Shanny speed and athleticism
4th Brandon Taylor SS LSU - a little undersized but has good speed
4th Audie Cole ILB NC State - good size, instincts, and athleticism
5th Danny Coale WR VA Tech - speedy, capable, and can add to our stable of Tech wideouts now that Royal has spurned us

I think Coale will become a good role player. Could do worse.

My hope is that we'll get enough done in FA to do what you say.

I'd like to see the Skins take a chance on a versatile player who could become game breaker, such as LaMichael James, Brandon Boykin, or Chris Rainey.

Re: Draft Strategy after the first round

If we go after a running back I hope it's LaMichael James. 4.3 speed, soft hands and is a threat to score anytime he touches the ball.

Pick players who have the best chance of sticking, regardless of position.
