I'm surprised that our two most obscure prospects (Austin and Morris) had formal in-depth highlight reels

So that being said does anyone know why the fuck we'd even draft a tight and if so why not last? Why not O-line 1st then the rest?

We didn't retain Todd Yoder leaving a need for a blocking TE. This guy is not only athletic but he loves to block, and from the looks of his highlight film he's good at it. On top of that he will not just play TE but also FB and Special Teams. He should actually be pretty effective blocking on kick offs. Also considering the fact that we ended up with two lineman afterwards that I was interested in I have no problem with this pick. In fact I like it.

The thing I didn't like about it though was the fact that they drafted a similar player last year in Eddie Williams (TE/FB Idaho) in that they found a small school TE that they intended to convert to Fullback, but the main difference between the two is that Morris is much more physical.

On a side note I'm starting to think that this year the team won't have any 2010 UDFA's on the final roster.

I thought we had addressed the Blocking TE when we signed Sean Ryan after his tenure with the Chiefs so this pick didnt make sense at first. But movign him to FB i can def see a place for him. he's got great hands, he's tough to bring down and most of all he's an AGGRESSIVE blocker. You want those players that are hungry and that kid looks hungry! Mike Sellers wont last forever. Maybe Morris can fill in like a peyton hillis type of shanahans past.

I was suprised we didnt see us pick a RB. And now with S. Johnson goin to the Titans and Blount goin to the 49ers im kinda worried that shanahan IS ok goin into the season with portis, johnson, and parker. But the day is not over yet.

Re: Redskins 2010 Draft Class with Analysis

What I liked most about this years draft, is that the FO addressed the OL which was way overdue. Also, I like the restrain on trading players like McIntosh, Carter, Haynesworth, Rogers, etc. We wouldn't have gotten fair value and they knew it, kudos for doing all the right things!! No RB were drafted and I'm sure they feel that we have some serious depth and they must feel Alridge can contribute.

Well I watched the Highlight vid of Morris he looks like a beast in the run game and he has great hands. Eddie Williams was injuired when we drafted him so that hurt his chances of making the team. If we can use him as a FB or H-back I think we may have found a diamond in the ruff.

No kidding. Looking at those videos and you wonder why the guy wasn't a first round pick. I don't know why the comments say he isn't much of a run blocker -- he was knocking helmets off and blowing people off the line.

He won't get much playing time on offense behind Cooley and Davis though. Look for him mainly on special teams I guess.
