anacostiakat Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 A bit surprised with the Redskins' second and third picks. But a guy who can play two positions as well as special teams and another cornerback (desperately needed) is good. Just thought they would be trying to fill defensive down linemen first.
Blazer Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Browns took a DE with the first pick in the 2nd round. okay, we need another edge rusher to compliment Paul Kruger. But then we use the very next pick to take another DE. Another Browns WTF? We have tons of other needs including a QB and we pass on many of the next best prospects. We then take an OT, which we needed after letting two of our best OL walk. We trade the very next pick, stupidly to drop back and get a 5th round pick. Then, then we finally take a QB and its Cody Kessler! Kessler who btw was never even mentioned in any mock draft and was mediocre in a great system. So this is how money ball is played. We will see.

anacostiakat Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 really liking our first pick. also the 2nd. not so sure about the third. the injury a worry. First pick sends a message to Garcon and Jackson who I think are in the last year of around $10M contracts.
SmokeyJoe99 Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Broncos still don't have a QB to fill Peyton's shoes. Not that I thought they would draft a QB, but...
foursite12 Posted April 30, 2016 Posted April 30, 2016 Broncos still don't have a QB to fill Peyton's shoes. Not that I thought they would draft a QB, but... I thought Lynch was a great pickup.
SmokeyJoe99 Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 I thought Lynch was a great pickup. For sure. At 6'6" he's like Brock, but he probably won't play much if any this year. That leaves us with Sanchez starting? Ugh.
Ken Gargett Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Ken, I'm not sure if this has been addressed or not and if so I'm sorry for asking again, but I'm interested to know how you became a Redskins fan? lived and worked in DC back in the glory years of joe gibbs, the hogs, the posse and so on. wonderful time. i liked the game, used to watch it a fair bit when studying in england. when i arrived in the states for the first time ever, friends picked me up at dulles and took me straight to georgetown to watch the skins. loved them from then on. was once even mistaken for a skins player but that was in canada. the thing was that all skins fans back then could never imagined the wilderness years. 1
Ken Gargett Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 First pick sends a message to Garcon and Jackson who I think are in the last year of around $10M contracts. with norman, plus contracts for kirk, galette, reed, baker - cannot see any way we keep both WRs. they are playing for a contract for sure.
Ken Gargett Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 Broncos still don't have a QB to fill Peyton's shoes. you do realise that you are talking about a QB who by almost any standard will rank in the top five of all time. they don't grow on trees. most franchises would dream of having one near as good as peyton once every fifty years.
Ken Gargett Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 on a slightly different note, nice to see another aussie drafted - adam gotsis in the 2nd by the broncos. 1

That's a good story. Always interesting to learn how people outside of the US become fans.
