But ok, you draft 2 receivers, b/c that was admittedly a position of need, now what to do with that other pesky 2nd round pick? Oh, I know, let's draft a TE, when we just signed our great young one to an extension, and we have a serviceable backup. That'll be great for all of those 3 TE sets that are so in vogue around the league these days.
The good teams (Titans, Giants, Steelers, Ravens, etc.) all generate a pass rush w/ their front 4, the Skins don't generate a pass rush period, and the o-line has become a revolving door. Someone please put Jansen out of his misery and send him to go hunt deer with his buddy Ramsey.

Completely agree. I was so excited when we had those 3 picks in the second round thinking that maybe we had figured it out and was going to build thru the draft and have a great draft only to be disappointed with the fact we never even took one lineman with those top 3 picks. There was plenty of people on this site and elsewhere that thought it was a great draft and our lines were fine that are now coming around and realizing our lines are old and mediocre at best.
Hopefully Zorn figures this out and addresses the lines. Unfortunately I think Snyder and Cerrato get too caught up with the 'sexy' pics of the next great offensive weapon being available and can't help themselves.
Only a couple of QBs in the history of the NFL could win with average offensive lines, but many average QBs have won with great offensive lines.
