Ten Players to Watch At the NFL Scouting Combine

The Redskins have tipped their hand on Redskins.com. I hope the link works.

You need to read the whole write up on each player, however, since we will not actually draft a guy like Sanchez.

Michael Oher LOT VA
Eugene Monroe LOT Miss

Although I know something about Oher being out of VA. and yes solid Left Tackle, but both these kids are LOT's. Don't think any of these two guys are gonna bump CS outta his job, as he's the best we have up front.

We need to shore up/UPGRADE the front five now, FA, Draft a now starter, whatever it takes. This will be of key importance to our success this season IMO.

1st round - Aaron Maybin DE/OLB PSU - Maybin is a great pass rusher with good instincts. He is OK against the run but has a huge upside.

3rd round - Eric Wood C UL - After watching the combine on tivo yesterday I thought Wood looked great. He pressed 225 - 30 times and looked explosive in drills.

5th round - Cedric Peerman RB UV -Decent Size and Speed and will allow us to trade Betts.

6th round - Andrew Gardner OT GT - Good Size and Durability. Would be a project, but what 6th round pick isn't.

Hands down we need to get clinton portis some help, I think beanie wells or percy harvin, or moreno; explosive playmakers in the first round. dont waste 1st round pick on mediocore OL and DL class. free agency can handle that need.

Interesting thoughts on the weak OL and DL class. Since I don't watch much college ball, I couldn't agree or disagree with that statement. But shouldn't you be able to find an x factor running back in the mid rounds? ala Leon Washington or Darren Sproles? I can't see taking a guy like Beanie Wells coming off of injury with the 13th overall pick.

Does anyone think that if Sanchez is on the board the Skins take him. I would.

Depends on who would look better taking a dirtnap at FedEx. Sanchez looks like a deep sleeper but I still think that Campbell can beat him out.

We have no need for a QB right now and sanchez will be a bust anyway, IMO... We have about 7 other position needs before we need a QB

That Guy · 02-22-2009, 11:17 PM

sorry, been away a while, so i'm not entirely up to speed (disappointing, i know :P).

anyways, I agree that OL/DL is the way to go, just like it was last year (grr).

lots of decent FAs, though a bunch are ancient (birk, runyan, et al). jahri evans or khalif barnes would start day one for us though, if that's possible to work out. we can try to grab nugent to kick and draft DL, since that's a weaker FA class after the franchise tags are handed out. Orakpo seems to show up in a lot of lists for us...

I think heyward-bey and lauranitis are the best value picks in the later first round right now (not for us, just in general), though they'll probably be top 15-20 by draft day.

Welcome back(?) How about Willis out of Seattle for a RT FA? He only gave up 1.5 sacks last year and is very young.

I might be wrong on this Goat but I thought Willis only played tackle because Jones was hurt. I'm not sure if he played the whole year at tackle which may have something to do with sacks allowed. But he does look like a good player and he is young and he is big.

According to their depth chart he's listed as a backup RT and not anywhere at guard and he's list as an OT on walterfootball.com but i honestly don't know anything about him. What I really noticed is like you said, young and big and available.

There are a lot of guys I would like to have in this draft but if we don't get some players on the line soon we're gonna be in some deep dookie for quite awhile.

Here's a little good and bad about him......2008 Season Retrospective: Ray Willis - Field Gulls

Nice find sir. I wonder if his knack for missing blocks could be coached up, or rather coached out of him, under Joe's tutelage?

... i guess what i'm thinking here is a guy like Willis could come in and start right away and probably be an upgrade over Jansen/Heyer. We could be in better position then to trade down in the draft and get your fav center/guard and an OLB.

BTW it looks less and less likely the Curry "miracle" will happen for us 53.
