I guess I'll feel more comfortable when we bring in new scouts next year.

I've been thinking the same thing.

Ok... so he's supposedly the answer at KR/PR?? ... Here's to drinking the Kool-Aid!!

Terrence Austin, UCLA, NFL Draft - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com I guess the DVD worked.

your conspiracy theory makes zero sense. even if you want to believe that vinny deferred to his scouts, there's no way shanahan and allen arent the ones making the picks. we drafted a FB and a WR because its the 6th and 7th rounds and we needed competition and depth at those positions. for the last time, we don't need depth on the offensive line. we dont need depth at running back. we have plenty of depth at both positions. we dont have depth at WR and FB. these picks all make sense to people who have sense. they are not signs that vinnys people are somehow still running the show.

What a total crock!!!!!! No OLs left at all? No safeties or other LBs? God damn, at least pick guys that fit positional needs. THank god we got that LB from LSU. Solid pickup there!!!!

I think they're hoping for Dante Hall. With this pick. Marko was a true reciever as he had over a 1,000 yards receiving his senior year. This guy only had 454 recieving yards.

We always win in shortened seasons!

We could have drafted Campbell! The guy we selected probably would have available as a free agent. And why did we draft a tight end? I really don't understand this draft or the goals of the Redskins.

Yeah, it seems like this dude will compete for the KR job. Speed is what we need. I liked how Rock always got it out to at least the 30 yard line, but was kind of annoyed how he rarely ever got past the 30 yard line.

[PHazard]

He doesnt have 4.38 speed its a lie. He ran a 4.5. But his acceleration is great. just not elite top end speed

The exact same players at the same positions in the draft. Except instead of drafting a LB in the 5th and 6th round we did it in the 4th.

I mean look at this:

2009:
5th - Cody Glen - LB - Nebraska
6th - Robert Henson - LB - TCU
7th - Eddie Williams - College TE moved to FB - Idaho
7th - Marko Mitchell - WR - Nevada

2010
4th - Perry Riley - LB - LSU
6th - Dennis Morris - College TE moved to FB - La Tech
7th - Terrance Austin - WR - UCLA

I mean do you not see a pattern? I'm not even saying there bad picks, what I am saying is that the same guys that picked players last year are picking players again this year

I disagree with you about wide receiver depth. And a problem with our OL depth is that many of the players are older.

There still remains a simple point: the most direct way to overcome not drafting OL's for a decade is to draft OL's.
