[quote=sdskinsfan2001;1140944]I wouldn't mind drafting another OLB even with Gallette back. I'd be happy with a guy like Floyd from Georgia. Any player on the defensive side would be alright by me. Or Laquon Treadwell if he is available[/quote]

We have Preston who was drafted in the 2nd last year. We don't need another OLB at this point. We have some good depth at that spot right now.

Agree...I also believe we are basically set at ilb as well. Kept Riley and signed the guy from Pittsburgh.

I expect us to continue improve free safety, dline and cornerback on defense.

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
 

We heard the rumor/speculation before that Murph might be a candidate to move to DE.

Personally I didn't buy it then and I still don't buy it now.

Murph has value in his currently role. Asking him to bulk up and move to DE in base defense is a huge ask.

It could also mean they want him to play DE in a 4 man line on passing downs. But between him Ryan, Gallette and Preston...Murph is the last of that group I expect quality pass rush from.

Murph is good at setting the edge as a 34 OLB and there is value there on 1st and 2nd down and in known/expected run situations. Murph in that role allows Junior to be come in fresh as a situational pass rusher.

If a ILB is BPA at any point I'm not going to allow Foster and Riley to dissuade me from picking thar ILB.

[quote=30gut;1141057]No. Why?

because I believe he will be a starter, yet you don't have him listed on your "depth chart"

was just curious as to why.

not even close . . . we need a real MLB, one that has the speed to tackle sideline to sideline and to cover RB's and TE's . . . Foster and Compton are ok . . . but not top of the line by no means, average at best.

Lol, then you agree with me. There are some ILB prospects I like from the top of the draft like Ragland to the middle like Schobert to the end like where BJ Goodson is currently projected.

Any you like in particular?

Oh, right. I think Perry when healthy starts over Compton.

You threw me off with the trade scenario, that's why I asked

Re: Redskins Free Agency 2016
 

i don't think there's ever a reason to pull JG for murph, unless JG is winded or hurt, so i'd definitely look at a position switch where he's limited pass rushing ability isn't as big of a negative.

It's not our biggest need, but Galette is only on a 1 year deal, and Murphy is looking more like a DE and/or 3-4 OLB run stuffer. So if the best player available is a guy like Leonard, I'd say you take him.

Agreed.

I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. But if it makes need philosophy drafters feel better you could argue that having 2 premier edge rushers is a need. And right now we barely have 1 in Kerrigan.

We're 'hoping' that Junior can return to form but expecting dominant pass rush from a speed rusher returning from injury is really r i s k y. If a edge rusher is BPA that makes the team better in arguably thee most important area on the team: pass rush.


On passing downs you could go Gallete-Preston-Kerrigan-rookie edge rusher

But from a prospect standpoint Leonard wouldn't be my choice as BPA edge rusher...but I can see how BPA could having drafting an OLB

JG rushed from the inside in NO a lot on passing downs. Also, don't forget Chris Baker. He is good rushing from the inside as well.

If Galette comes back healthy, watching him + Kerrigan/Smith should be pretty sexy lol.

Pierre Thomas on the Redskins "radar" - why ?

[quote=Irrefutable;1141242]Pierre Thomas on the Redskins "radar" - why ?[/quote]

because he was solid last year and if we don't draft someone, we'll need a body. he catches, he blocks, he doesn't fumble.
