Re: Who do we sign on defense? FA/Draft?
I think Zbikowski is going to be very happy that he played all four years of his college eligibility. He could have been a higher draft pick if he had come out after his second season, but he wasn't ready to make the move, and would have been a disaster as an NFL safety (still would have been a valuable Punt Ret guy).
As it stands now, he's not going to be a first round pick, but ultimately when the draft process runs it's course, I think he will be a second or third rounder and probably the 4th or 5th safety off the board.
The Redskins could use Zbikowski, but they certainly don't need him, nor do they need a safety in general. Just as a fan of the guy, for personal reasons, I think Washington would be a good fit for him.
