The "we should have takens"
 

I don't follow the stuff leading up to the draft closely, but every year, we take propsects people aren't familiar with and some fans respond in a burst of passion about we should have taken player X with the pick instead.

Now, I am a bit curious about these Players Xs that we should have taken and whether we should have taken the Player Xs over the players we actually took.

Now, I can recall Kerrigan(Cameron Jordan?) and Trent(Okung) getting that treatment for sure, but my memory is shaky on the other players, so I could use some help about this here.

Re: The "we should have takens"
 

They drafted the players they wanted and the players who were available that they thought would help this team, so I don't understand the point of this thread.

Could'of, would'of, should'of...is pointless. Let's focus on what we have and put this thing together.

The SMU CB

The SMU Guard and/or The Florida Atlantic RB

We should have taken cousins in the third. But we were patient and got him in the 4th. Way to go skins!

So basically this thread is a repeat of what was said many times over in the draft thread. Check.

Gotta love the armchair GM/Scouts.

I'm only mocking people upset about the pick. I effing love it. Behind Griffen, it's the best pick we've made in years

We could have had Ray Rice a few years ago too.

Re: The "we should have takens"
 

Okung was/is the better pick over Williams. This FO does some strange sh!t...but hey they could get lucky!

I kept saying Minnifield right from the 5th round on.. Glad to see him sign.

Kirk Cousins was projected to be drafted in the second round and many general managers had a 1st round grade on him. He was certainly expected to be drafted before Nick Foles, who was taken in the 3rd round by the Eagles. How Cousins fell to the 4th round no one knows. But getting him there was certainly a steal for the Redskins.

We should have taken a left at Albuquerque
