Whoa. Are you guys talking about Eddie Royal? When I think of diva's, I def. don't think of him, and I followed him throughout his collegiate career when he was at VT. I don't even think he's made so much as a negative comment in his time in the league so far.

Ah, go figure. I don't even think he's the headcase people make him out to be, he's just like a lot of receivers with that "I want the ball" mentality.

These people were dense then, as being a head case has little bearing on success and productivity. See T.O. At the VERY WORST, he could be considered a simple special teamer who may have turned into trade bait.
And Philly sure didn't mind even though they had T.O before.
See Devin Thomas.

See Devin Thomas.
A headcase is considered insane or eccentric. Devin was just stupid or more precisely, "slow to learn".

The draft is a crap shoot but often times a 1st / 2nd round draft picks can and should have immediate impact.
The 3rd round pick and 4th round picks are less likely to have an immediate impact although this would be a place where you can still find decent interior OL
With the 1st 3 rounds i would try to land at least 1 OL and 1 DL:
maybe take a 3-4 DE in the 1st round then take a RT and Center in the 2nd/3rd

Should load up with linemen period and maybe a RB or WR. Put RB over WR. I think we could sign some nice undrafted Wrs in 2011. Trade AH for more picks.

This year's free agent class isn't all that deep when it comes to the OL, but remember the name I brought up the other day. Davin Joseph

Umm, I thought our draft looked like this...
1,2,5,6,7
#3 and #4 have been given away... to Philli for McNabb and N.O. for Brown. When did we pick up another 3rd?

I like the idea of drafting Lineman, but I am kinda liking the blend we have right now. I know they'eve given up alot of pressure and sacks the past few games, but alot of it I think has to do with Rabach, and the way he gives up so much pressure up the middle.
I would really like to see us Build the defense in the draft. Get a MONSTER at NT, and another ILB/OLB... Even a FS.
I think the defense has ALOT more holes then the offense at the moment. If we are going to a 3/4 then we really need to focus on the defense first. You can't win close games without a good defense. Redskins play alot of close games.

Jay Ratliff was a 7th rounder.
Yeah, but he is a penetrator. Garay was a journeyman before San Diego salvaged him. Aubrayo Franklin seemed to have panned out from the start. While it's great if we do land a stud NT in the late rounds, other measures need to be taken to make sure the position is filled because for every stud, there's a lot more scurbs floating around. Late round picks in general are a crapshoot, and even moreso for a hard-to-find position in growing demand.
