Redskins Notes (3/31): K Wright, Evans etc

I'm very excited we re-signed D. Evans. Theres just somthing about this kid that I think can be VERY special. I really didnt want to lose him this year, I think he could be a starter for us eventually!

I totally agree! I just rewatched the Skins-Bucs playoff game on NFL Network OnDemand and Evans was in almost every play. Im a big fan of this kid and can definitely see him as our starting LE opposite Carter...

I like Evans. Not sure what we're getting with K. Wright though.

EXoffender · 04-01-2006, 07:22 PM

K Wright does have good size.

That Guy · 04-01-2006, 08:27 PM

K wright has some sacks, and he's been a starter as well, but lacks high end speed. He's a good nickel and he's big.

ahh so i see were going LB with first pick now.

PWNED · 04-03-2006, 08:37 AM

i know its doubtful, but is there ANY chance we could move up into the first round? even though im su re there will be a pretty good LB available.

With Fletcher out of the picture, I hope they sign Wright soon.

If I read correctly, yes they did. I believe it said multi-year deal.

dmek25 · 04-03-2006, 09:20 AM

i dont he is great but for the limited amount of playing time he gets,he makes plays and we all know thats what this league is all about

bigSkinsfan61 · 04-03-2006, 05:02 PM

good pick up.....lets see what were gonna get in the draft i cant wait!!!

Pocket$ $traight · 04-03-2006, 07:07 PM

They have only one perceived "hole" (linebacker) and I don't believe they are weak there. This defense will be head and shoulders ahead of any defense that Arrington was on. It won't even be close.

This offseason has been phenomenal. The only negative would be if Taylor misses time which I don't see happening.

I'd agree if I were sure that the defensive line is up to the task yet again this season. If Andre Carter can apply consistent, tenacious pressure on the quarterback it should provide a spark we haven't seen from that position in quite awhile -- not to mention opening things up a bit for Philip Daniels. With Griffin and Salave'a staying healthy for 16+ games, I don't see any reason why the defense shouldn't be even better this year.

But to me, that could be a pretty big 'if'. Especially with Griffin and Salave'a. Notice that we're going through another offseason without a serious, dedicated effort to bolster the defensive line again? Everybody seems happy with the addition of Andre Carter, and so am I, but I thought it needed to go a bit further.

Now, it seems pretty much settled that our first pick in the draft will be either linebacker, offensive lineman, or perhaps cornerback. You have to go with the best player available, I know. It would just be nice to see the remainder of our picks on the second day looking for a diamond in the rough along the D-line.

killings and evans are quality role players, both can play DT. Wynn can start at either position and be fine. if one guy is injured we shouldn't even notice it, the carter going down hurts pressure and griffin going down is just generally bad.
