32. Washington: The Redskins sort of skipped the draft and reached on Miami linebacker Rocky McIntosh, who was considered an injury risk by some teams. Joe Gibbs gave up a second-round pick next year and a third this year for Rocky. Gibbs said they took him because he liked the name and that they knew a lot about him. This is a franchise that cares more about spending in free-agency than it does working the draft. Grade: F

This is pathetic. Gibbs would NOT draft someone because of their name. That's idiotic.
Also, we didn't "skip" the draft...and McIntosh will be a great LB if he stays healthy. I'm happy with using a pick for him.
So, the Skins care more about free agency than drafts? Sure, that's why we're making a DRAFT pick our QB of the future. Rogers and Campbell were GREAT picks and I believe McIntosh will prove to be also in the long run.
If anyone should be ranked last in the draft, it should be the Jets. They have two glaring holes in their roster at QB and RB and ignored them both with their high draft pick.
