I love Barkley. I think he's the best player in the draft. But for this team, i just don't see the value.

Why? No Breeland. No Fuller. They were solid contributors to a good pass coverage unit. I think in order to maintain or improve in pass rush we can't rely on Scandrick, Moreau and Dunbar to be as good as the players we lost.

For me it makes sense that both CB and NB are targets along with the other positions. A NB is basically a starter in the modern NFL.

That's a good list too. D

No. 2 first round picks for a position with the shortest average career length in the league doesn't make sense to me.

Re: Looking at the draft.

NFL comparison by Chris Trapasso of cbssports.com:

D.J. Moore, Maryland

NFL comparison: Pierre Garcon

Garcon has had one of the more underrated careers of any wide receiver over the past decade. He had an awesome combine back in 2008 and doesn't lack in any area. He'll occasionally hit a big play by utilizing his speed, is shifty on bubble screens and has done plenty of work as a consistent chain-mover. Moore's balance and running skills make him an ideal wideout for today's NFL.


This is such a good comparison. As I watched Moore's tape, Pierre Garcon memories kept popping into my head. He would be a perfect fit for us but, due to other needs, I doubt that we'll pick him. I think he'll be very successful in the NFL.

21 year old
6' 8"
346 pounds
He ran the 40-yard dash in 5.12 seconds — which would have been the seventh best at that position at the NFL Combine — and ran a short shuttle time of 4.67 seconds — which would have put him in the top-10. He also knocked out 22 reps on the bench press.

What I was surprised with PG was his speed, he was much faster than people credited him for..

I wouldn't oppose those picks

Too high for Payne, he's listed as the 3rd best DL in the draft

It doesn't really matter what so called NFL analysts think. If Redskins scouting dept rated Payne as one of best DL then they should go for it.

I take it you are saying he's 3rd behind Chubb and Vea. But Chubb is an edge rusher, so I wouldn't compare Payne to him, different positions IMO. And you could make an argument of Vea being over him, although Vea will be more of a NT/2 down d-lineman in the NFL.

I think this is where getting Hankins would be huge. I think an interior line of Payne, Hankins, and Allen would be sick.

It's a 4 year league. If you look at our roster in 4-5 years it will be mostly overhauled.

Generally you are correct, but top 5 picks should be generational players. Would you be ok if we had taken Okung instead of Trent and were searching for a LT again?

I think if we get Hankins we are fine, remember matt ioannidis was pretty damn good too last yr at times.
