@SBXXVI - From looking at the draft thread yesterday everyone likes the pick. They traded down, got additional picks, and drafted a productive hard working kid that not only fills a positional need at receiver, but an overall team need of another red zone threat.

If they had used a second round pick on a receiver I would have been a little more hesitant but a 3rd round pick on a guy that had a late first early second grade? Count me in. A Vinny draft happens, when trench players are only drafted in the late late rounds, and thats if you're lucky.

In fact the only way Vinny drafts trench players is if they have pretty numbers he can look up like sacks, 40's, and bench press. Jenkins, a selfless space eater, for example wouldn't have even been on Vinny's board.

I'm all for OL. My take... we need a C, and RT. I think building that foundation will go a mile with our OL being more stable. So having said that I'd probably take atleast 2 OL before the draft ends.

On Redskins.com the article on Jarvis Jenkins, MS said Jarvis would be used at DE. To me that means we still need a NT. So I'd take 1 NT if there is one available.

Obviously it would be nice to pick up a CB because who know what will happen with Carlos and maybe a FS to pair with Atogwe, god forbid he hurts himself and we are yet again left without a backup.

Just to please some of you I'd even be willing to go RB.

After all this we've used 6 picks and still have 4 more. Why not take another WR? Heck they might just rule out injury prone Kelly. Unless they are thinking about going FA if and when that opens up. Then I'd take more OL perhaps Guards.

Micheal Lombardi drew a mild comparison between our draft strategy and the Pats, calling it Patriots light.

If we can nail the rest of these picks, I think I can find it my heart to forgive Shanny for last year and wipe the slate clean. Because he's so worried about what I think of him.

And don't forget we picked up O.J. Atogwe this offseason and I'm sure we're going to add one or two notable FAs.

I think the Cowboys are going to release Marion Barber this year, anybody think we should look at him?

I want absolutely nothing to do with that guy. He just flat out isn't good.

I like that he has the biggest hands of WRs.

Redskins have been very wise this Draft, great value with Hankerson at #79 overall | Fantasy Football Metrics – RC Fischer Blog (http://www.fantasyfootballmetrics.com/blog/2011/04/29/redskins-have-been-very-wise-this-draft-great-value-with-hankerson-at-79-overall/)

And it appears all of that work Mark Duper did with him has made him much better at catching with them.

All I gotta say is GREAT PICK!!!!!!!!!!! This guy is a football player. I don't care about his 40 speed, this isn't a track meet. Hankerson is going to be productive. He reminds me of Hakeem Nicks.

I think Barber has lost his mojo. Maybe he's just taken too many big hits.
