Ha, this is how I want Goodell to announce our pick. McDowell wouldn't be a bad selection.

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

Gareon Conley

Tre'Davious White

Haason Reddick

Takkarist McKinley

Caleb Brantley

Christian McCaffrey-(he is the only RB I would consider because of his dynamic ability as a receiver)

Mitchell Trubisky

fingers crossed. Would love to have him.

Set the tone on D. Draft the most bad-ass MF you can - Reuben Foster.

Seems really really tough to call this year the way things are going.
I will also go with Malik Mcdowell.

Ive seen where mocks have him falling...would be a steal.

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

Trade....

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

I actually agree. I think McDowell is too huge of a risk if all the other blue chippers are gone. I DO think someone unexpected slides, and if so, we take that person.

If I had to pick the biggest question marks...high risk/big reward...I put 3. McCaffrey a behind the pass rusher from UCLA and Adore Jackson goes late first round.

I would like Cook if there isn't an impact player available on D.
Portis was on the radio a few weeks ago and praised the kid.

What did he praise him for? Perhaps it was for landing a snappy combination of punches on the face of an innocent young woman whom he and his buddies were harassing and intimidating. I don't want to ever see him in a Redskins uniform.

So your not endorsing the

Round 1. Dalvin Cook
Round 2. Joe Mixon

Plan at running back?

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

Flip a coin between Christian McCaffrey and Dalvin Cook. I'd be happy either way.

NFL Network's Peter Schrager reports "multiple front office execs" have told him Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey has a chance to come off the board in the first ten picks.

NFL Network draft analyst Daniel Jeremiah appears to be on the same page, giving McCaffrey to the Panthers at No. 8 in his latest mock after being told by an NFL executive the running back "really helped himself" in the pre-draft process. Following Dalvin Cook's extremely poor showing at the Combine, McCaffrey likely will be the second running back off the board behind Leonard Fournette.

...well timed article. Just needs that Bucky Brooks stamp...

no way, grew up watching too many talented/successful ones to have been conditioned that way.

ones such as: warren moon, randall cunningham, steve mcnair, donovan mcnabb, daunte culpepper, michael vick, cam newton, russell wilson, and jameis winston.

just the first few names that came to mind, but those careers have spanned the late 1970's to the present.

i'd struggle mightily to generate a similar list of talented white rbs, i dare say riggins was the last great one.

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

According to this mock a lot of teams that pick before us want Foster and Cook. If they are even close to being right McDowell must really have a shitty work ethic to fall this far. Glad some of you guys like McCaffrey though I do understand what Panda means. They've been few and far between. I'd be fine with him though A lot of mocks have us taking Reddick. So is the question who I want or who I think we're gonna pick?

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

I really hope we don't take a RB. Backs can always be found in the middle and later rounds.

Hes got a damn nice highlight reel. Looks pretty fast too.
Watch him at 1:56, was that a designed bat?

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

how anyone , after watching our horrible defense last season, wants anyone BUT a defensive player is beyond me

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

and cook has had at least 4 separate run ins with the law. ill pass

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

I wasn't aware of any legal issues and i'm fine with not drafting "bad hombres" but it's really hard to win with boyscouts.
I'm not saying we should draft Aaron Hernandez but we can't pass on the next Randy Moss either.
We can't be afraid to coach these guys.

I'm not interested in McCaffrey. He reminds me of Joe McKnight from USC, not worth a first IMO but it looks like the NFL doesn't agree with me or maybe they hope to sell a lot of jerseys.

i like this one a lot. not high on the mac attack, don't want to let a moss type talent slip through the cracks.

moss stayed on the field and scored a shit ton of tds. from 1998 through 2009 i think he missed 6 games and failed to eclipse 1,000 yards only twice, scoring double digit tds in all but 3 of those seasons.

Yeah Cook or Mixon would be good picks imo at RB. Either one could make this offense bigly. We got a plodder, move-the-pile-guy in Kelly. We need a homerun threat. I know Cook and Mix got wrap game, but when it comes to ballin, as long as Jay is gud, Im good.

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

More today about McCaffrey and Skins...Rapoport saying Skins got alot of interest.

NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reports the Panthers, Broncos and Redskins "loom" for Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey.

McCaffrey to the Panthers at No. 8 has been the rumor du jour the past few days, while he was previously linked to the Broncos at No. 20. The Redskins at No. 17 are new. There have been multiple recent reports that McCaffrey could go in the top 10, but it still seems a little far-fetched. There's no question all three teams badly need running back help.

i don't agree w that. i'm happy w fat rob while acknowledging that he's not a game changer.

We could certainly do worse, like a Matt Jones for example.

Idc if we pick McCaffrey, if he's the BPA do it. Fer chrissakes just 3 short years ago there were like 2 quality picks in the top 13. Point is, 3 years from now this draft class might look exactly like the 2013 draft. Pick the BPA. I haven't seen McCaffrey's highlight reel but if they feel he's the BPA, do it.

Re: With the 17 pick, the Washington Redskins select...
 

Today I was listening to the SiriusXM NFL channel on my way home from work; Jim Miller and Pat Kirwan completed a live two round mock draft. They had the Redskins trading back to the 25th pick of the first round (compensation: 2017 and 2018 3rd round draft picks) and selecting LB Zach Cunningham. In the second round, they had the Skins selecting DL Caleb Brantley.
I would be happy with those draft picks in the first two rounds. McCaffrey, Cook and Fournette were gone before pick 17; trading back was a smart move.

I like the trade and the picks. Getting third round picks this year and next would be very nice.

I think Cunningham is a solid first rounder at a position of need. The only thing I don't like about him is his tackling technique. He tackles like he's wrestling a steer, so that will need to be improved.

I definitely see Brantley as a solid second round pick for us. He has his strengths and weaknesses but he would bring us the kind of talent we need on the DL. He can play in the middle, he can penetrate, and he should be able to play on all three downs.

I would agree only if Matt Jones would have panned out...it is a severe need.

IMO, the greatest needs right now is D-Line and RB.

I think Guard/interior Oline is a legit second tier....John Sullivan signed with the Rams this week. Kory L retired. I wouldn't mind spending both 4th round picks on the Oline interior...there are legit C/Guard prospects in this draft.

[quote=D.BUTZ65;1169052]Go big or go home! Malik Mcdowell, DT, Michigan State[/quote]

I like him as well. Has a high ceiling. Put him at DE in our 3-4 and draft an immovable NT in round 2. We would be miles ahead of last season on the d-line.
This draft is deep in d-lineman, so reaching is not a worry.
Meaning we would not have to reach.
