[QUOTE=KI Skins Fan;1070027]Mike Mayock comment on the Redskins' pick at #34:



“A guy that nobody is talking about that I love is Joel Bitonio from Nevada,” he said. “Most people assume he’s a guard. I watched him handle Anthony Barr from UCLA. I watched him against Florida State. I watched him against Boise who has a good edge kid in Demarcus Lawrence. I think Bitonio will start day one at right tackle and I think he’ll be there at 34.”[/QUOTE]


I did see him mentioned as a first rounder in a couple of mocks but he certainly could be there at 34.

One mock draft I saw actually have the Redskins picking him with the 34th pick.....

London Fletcher to announce our first pick.
And he suggests it to be OL. (good call London)

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

I still say secondary is the biggest need. It's been the most inconsistent area on the team the past 2 - 3 years. Ryan Clark will bring some consistency, but what does he have left? Out of the entire secondary, Hall has provided the most consistency- but that doesn't say much about that unit. Every good defense has a good secondary. The Redskins have question marks everywhere in this unit. Time to try to really make this a strength again.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

There will be a good player that can upgrade the oline in the 3rd. In this draft, there's impact secondary players in reach with the 34th pick. I don't see that happening next year even in the first round. And pass rushers are the biggest boon or bust players in the draft. Just take that risk next year.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

I want us to stick to the trenches, o-line, d-line, ILB.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

Defense wins championships. To take it one step further, great physical secondaries can win championships. Seattle knows it's priorities and they have shown them by paying them well this past week.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

... Or we can just keep getting by on defense with a possible weak secondary and defense again. And hope that RGIII puts this team on his back again and ride him to a winning season.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

The most important positon on our defense is NT. We run a different defense than Seattle.

He actually left it pretty open, mentioning OL, ILB, and S, and obviously this was his thinking, not an inside scoop.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

I believe that the most important thing that the Redskins must do to win is to protect RGIII. We all know that RT has been an on-going problem. Unfotunately, the Skins were unable to come to a deal with a free agent RT they wanted, although they were able to sign some decent stop-gap players at several other positions of need.

To me, that all adds up to the Redskins finding a way in this draft to get that RT they need so much. If that means trading up (yes, I said trading [U]up[/U]), then I'm for it. I'm fine with having fewer picks if it means fixing the RT problem which I consider to be the Redskins' greatest need at this time.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

We could use one of those fancy tackling machines AKA ILB.

Re: 34th Overall Pick
 

I'm fine with BPA within our needs. And mostly I'm just tired of all the mocks and talk. Time to get this thing rolling for real!

True, but not at #34.
