Well to be clear, I haven't been talking with Redskins scouts (not yet at least), but I've talked to some scouts and other execs in the league who have given me their impressions (based on observations and conversations) and everyone pretty much at this point believes the Redskins want to add an OLB and an OT first and that they will probably draft RB before DL, I think the Skins like this guy Jeremiah Johnson in the 3rd round potentially.
This is going to change so many times but if the draft was today, my suspicion is they'd take Cushing at 13.
Interestingly enough, one of the scouts was talking about Vinny and Snyder and he said they have the right idea but he doesn't understand their execution. For example, he thinks it was absolutely the right idea to go after a couple of WRs last year because beyond Crabtree and Maclin he doesn't believe the class is as strong this year. But he thinks they could have done better than Kelly and Thomas. He thinks they could have afforded to wait a round or two and take another receiver deeper in the draft. For what that's worth.
