2014 NFL Draft: Rounds 2-3

[punch it in]

So true. Anything kills Berman that doesnt have Berman. Lol. Ray ray was awful. I love Gruden though.

If I was in the Redskins draft room and had all the opinions they did I don't know.

Dude, all I am saying is that we have more pressing needs than OLB, particularly given how bad our O-line was last year (and secondary). I don't think that's an unreasonable conclusion, and I don't think drafting for need is a bad approach either.

Don't get me wrong -- I get the best player available approach too, but does anyone think this guy is that? The write-ups on hims are solid, projecting him as a 2-3 round player, suggesting that we picked him in about the right spot -- but I haven't seen anything yet that suggests we got great value or anything approaching a steal (time will tell). He seems like more of a depth signing to me -- something we can't afford with the holes we have and so few picks.

BTW, I think the Packers are having a good draft -- I really like the WR out of Fresno St. they picked up. I have a feeling that guy will be great (although having Aaron Rodgers throw the ball your way helps a lot).

I agree pass rush was a need. No doubt about it. Helps the secondary. I am not sure he was the bpa there. Sounds like he wasnt according to the espn crew.

Maybe. There are questions about Moses's motor but no questions about Murphy. From what I can tell Murphy is not just a football player, he's a sack machine. I like sack machines.

We can still get a good RT in the third.

Probably not where I would have gone. But I don't study players for a living either. Just reading up on him real quick I think there's a lot to like there.

[punch it in]

Lotus you just got me pumped about Murphy. Lol. God I am easily swayed.
Edit: Matty I hope what you are reading is the case!

[Ruhskins]

We have young guys in the oline and secondary that will be given the chance of stepping in. And with two 3rd round picks I'm sure they'll pick an area of need.

No one's going to agree on this pick until we actually see him on the field for substantial gameplay and even then who're we kidding people still won't agree 100%. For the time being the people who thought it was too soon or just don't like it at all will get bashed for voicing an opinion by some just as those who like it or are just going along with what the team does will get bashed for voicing that opinion as well by some. This is what makes the offseason go from enjoyable to unbearable at the drop of a dime lol. Here's to always hoping for the best with this team even if I don't 100% agree with the moves 100% of the time.
