With the 13th Pick the Washington Redskins select...

[SFREDSKIN]

With all the RB’s the skins need to face twice a year, Elliot, Ajay/Blount and now Barkley, Vea should be the pick.

Oh for crying out loud Schneed let your sense of humor come out to play. His response was funny as hell.

Remember, Vea is not the only run stopper available.

If you want to fill the NT position with a bona fide run stopper, and you acknowledge that you're going to use Allen and Ioannidis in the nickel pass rush (why wouldn't you, they were very effective last year), then you should think about these guys in the middle rounds:

Derrick Nnadi - Florida State 6'1" 317
Nathan Shepherd - Fort Mays State (D2) 6'4" 315
BJ Hill - NC State 6'3" 311
Harrison Phillips - Stanford 6'3" 307
Tim Settle - VA Tech 6'3" 329

Run stoppers in the middle of the line are very important, but not as impactful to a team overall as a stud MLB with range like Edmunds or Smith, and not nearly as impactful as rangey safeties who can flex down to cover the slot (see: Collins, Landon).

We can help our run defense without Vita Vea. There are more rounds in this draft than the 1st.

Plenty of options on the DL but watch people freak the F out if we don’t go that way tonight and declare the draft is already the worst ever

I wont freak out as long as we dont go that way because Mikah or someone is there. That being said I just think that unless u have that BIG TIME presence in the middle (or heart of) your defense than nothing else will work to its full potential. Every year i watch this team get beat up in the trenches and every year i say next year we will address that shit. Without a beating heart the limbs are useless no matter how sculpted they are.

The problem is every year there are plenty of options at DL, but this FO devalues the position likely because it's a 2 down player.
If we get a clear top 10 guy because 4-6 qb's go before us, then I will be happy.
If we trade down, pick up a 3rd and still get a clear upgrade at NT, I will be happy.
If we trade down and get a strong RB, Guard combo, and pick up Hankins after the draft, I likely will be happy,

But if we trade down, pick up squat for the middle of the DL and then sign more 2nd tier guys like last year, I will not be happy.

I fully agree with this position. I expect, nay I DEMAND, the Redskins come up with a solution to stopping the run before training camp starts. It absolutely does not have to be Vita Vea. But something must be done.

If Hankins goes someplace else for a song, and we don't come away with a promising rookie at this spot, I will be the first to march on Ashburn with a torch with Bruce's name on it.

I’ll just say keep in mind Ioannidis was a 5th rounder

I’d rather have Payne over Vea

Payne and Price is my 1-2 wishlist
