The Redskins 2020 draft class

[Warthog]

Christian is a full DRAFT BUST. He won’t make it past this TC.

The holes at TE, CB and OT will be filled with the new Kyle Smith /Rivera strategy. Use their big $35 mill cap chest to hire fired players from other teams as they are let go in TC and PS ( if there is a preseason). All teams pick up players right before the regular season. I just think Rivera is going to do it on a much bigger scale and part of a real PLAN. Why do I think this is going to happen?

1. Huge war chest. Second highest in the NFL. Most teams are broke by now scrambling for players. Redskins are holding back for one year, Uber-cheap contracts of players trying to stay in the NFL, that have been let go on other squads.

2. Open spots on the team. Most teams are full up with 90 or almost 90. Redskins are at 84. Holding spots open for players to be signed later is off season??

3. Limited UDFA. Last year the Redskins signed something like 8 UDFA. This year it is just 4. Why? Less potential talent? I think they are looking more at the fruit that’s going to drop from OTHER TEAMS. Is there more chances of getting players from other teams OVER LOADED WITH TALENT AT A POSITION? For instance, the Bears have 10 TE’s -they’ll get rid of half. One or two may be worth a look or a small, short contract.

4. I couldn’t figure out why the Redskins got no one of consequence in FA OR the draft at TE. They need TE’s to replace Reed and Davis. They have little talent on their roster from last season. What were they waiting for? Rivera thought Hooper was over-priced. They didn’t pick up Trautman in the draft. I believe they see their players coming perhaps from the cast offs of other teams.


That’s my theory. Let’s see if I’m right over the next few months !! Hiring a dozen or so new players late in the TC and PS cycle at positions of need. If I’m wrong then they DON’T have a plan for certain positions and we’ll get new players there in NEXT YEAR’s draft. Rivera is hinting that they look at this year as being a wash. Too many holes to fill. But maybe they hope to gain players from others left overs. We shall see!
