If we Draft a WR, who do you want?

The Redskins can find a decent wide receiver in the 3rd or forth round. Just look at Leonard Hankerson who clearly was graded as a first round prospect. Brandon Marshall, one of the NFL's elite wide receivers, was a 4th round draft choice. Bruce Allen should be able to find a diamond at WR in the later rounds. Look at Victor Cruz, who was undrafted.

I think Hank could turn out to be a great pick up, would be happy if we got another similar upside receiver in the 3rd or 4th. After signing Garcon and Morgan though we definitely have more concern at other positions haha.

Also keep in mind with a top 10 3rd round pick and 2 4th round picks they can move up into the second round but I seriously doubt they'll do that. Rather they'll probably start making a living in the 3rd to 6th round range.

I would be pretty confused if they moved those picks for a 2nd rounder.
They really need to find value in those later rounds though to ensure that this is our most successful draft in years.
RG3 should handle most of that.

I hope we dont waste a pick on a WR this year.

We probably will. Oh how happy we would all be if they used the 3rd and both 4th round picks on offensive lineman.

It appears the Redskins have enough wide receivers. Santana Moss, Pierre Garcon, Josh Morgan, Jabar Gaffney, Leonard Hankerson, Niles Paul, Brandon Banks, David Anderson, and Anthony Armstrong.

If they do draft a receiver it would be to add more youth to the position.

Personally I do not consider Banks, Anderson, or Armstrong to be "enough." They are roster-fillers.

I agree with you on that statement concerning Banks and Anderson. But not Armstrong. Armstrong had a decent season in 2010 but in 2011 he didn't much playing time before of injuries and the strong play of Jabar Gaffney. Armstrong might have a big year in 2012.

i'm with you. i would rather the skins not draft a wr at all this year and if they do, just try and find someone in the late rounds with potential. we have enough of a core to get us through the next season. the wr i have the most questions about is armstrong. he was lighting it up for a while and then just dissapeared. my thinking is because once mcnubb was gone we didn't have a qb that could get a ball to him down field. i'm hoping with griffin coming in we will have the ability to start using armstrong as we did when he first got here. i hope he shows somthing in camp and can be our deep threat this year.

We agree again. I think all three are out.

I think we might take a 4th or 5th round WR like Ryan Broyles or Brian Quick. Right now I'm fine with Garcon/Hankerson/Morgan/Moss/Gaffney/Paul. I just wanna see who returns kicks once Banks is gone.

Suppose we do draft a Ryan Broyles, who you got making up the Week 1 WR core?
