I Iike my draft for skins. McDonalds slogan is what I feel about my team. "I'm loving it"
WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Jarran Reed - DT - Alabama
Vonn Bell - SS - Ohio St.
Pharoh Cooper - WR - South Carolina
Blake Martinez - ILB - Stanford
Eric Murray - CB - Minnesota

I like some of the picks. Jarran Reed is a guy that I see having a 10-year career as a decent DT but he isn't a guy that gets me all that excited. He is a great replacement for losing Knighton and really stuffing the run up the middle but he offers little to nothing pass rush wise. Kind of a 2-down thumper up the middle and I just don't like using a 1st round pick on those types.

Von Bell is a guy I like a lot. I think that is a great pick and a day 1 impact player.

Cooper while good and adding versatility isn't my favorite receiver. The fact that he adds to special teams though definitely helps.

Martinez is another guy I like. I think he can be another day 1 impact player possibly starting. So good value at that point in the draft.

Murray is a very underrated player in this draft. 3-year starter with good size/speed/strength combo for a Corner. Not a big turnover machine by any means but great coverage skills and not afraid to get in and hit somebody. Another very good pick.

Overall like this draft. I do think most of these players will make an impact on the team I just don't think you have anybody that I see turning into a star any time soon other than maybe Bell.

@cdumler7,

No problem...

Round 1--Darron Lee. This is a guy that is flying up draft boards from what I have seen. A little undersized but I think he is a guy behind that elite DL of the Jets that could thrive. He is one of the few guys that day 1 is a 3-down linebacker for whoever drafts him. Hard to find those guys these days. I wonder just a bit of need. From what I have read OLB as a pass rusher is a bigger need. He can do that but he is more of a drop back in coverage type. Still good player to have.

Round 2--Hassan Ridgeway. My two biggest issues with this pick. 1) Need. Seems to be a congestion of good/great talent on the DL. 2) Value. I view him as a rotational player as he lacks good conditioning and I just don't see him as a huge impact player. Not really what I am looking for in round 2.

Round 3--Booker. Maybe my favorite pick of yours. Fits both need and value. One of if not my favorite RB in this draft. Very good pick and was ticked when I saw it as was planning with my 3rd round pick to take him.

Round 4--Sanchez. Again great pick. He is a turnover machine. Will sometimes get caught trying to do too much but for 4th round pick this guy could be a steal. Throw in having one of the top corners in the league helping train him up I think this could be a nice combo to go with Revis.

Round 4--Glasgow. This is one of those lunch pail type players. He might not be the biggest or strongest but he will work his tail off. I do know of some of the field issues with drinking but otherwise one of the more consistent Inside guys on the OL this past year. One of those medium ceiling but high floor type players. Good pick.

So overall pretty good draft. Like I said with the first 2 picks I question just a bit the need for those guys compared to some other positions that still had high quality players left that the team needs but otherwise really think you got some good players with some of them having a very high ceiling.

 

[cdumler7]

Ooh ooh...do mine too!

I'll have to do it later. Have to head to golf practice. Man my life is tough...get paid to go play golf and soccer today.

 

[cdumler7]

I will say @beardown07 I did just a quick look and I think you will like what I have to say. I judge a draft a lot by are they players I really wanted on my team and hate that another team took them and you took a few of my favorites. I actually remember when a couple of them were drafted letting out an audible angry sound.

Steelers and Chargers probably have my favorite drafts so far. Ravens and Vikings up there, too.

Thanks buddy!!! It really is nice to hear from someone who knows what they are talking about as I don't follow college football at all.

As for Darron lee, i did see that he was undersized, but I was reading only good things. At the time I was seeing mocks where he was going before the jets or even to the jets. So I just wanted BPA at the linebacker position. Now if he wasn't that then I did make a mistake.


As for ridgeway, he seems to be a love or hate player. Some mocks I was seeing had him being a value pick, others didn't have him until the 4th. But I didn't really care, I wanted him to be depth and strengthen my teams biggest strength. The jets are a little old at the DT position, so I just wanted insurance to keep that as the strength. And if he deserves to start or play more then the jets line will be even scarier since it can be fresher.
But I will admit, I had full intent to draft Henry, once the colts took him THAT was my best plan B

Darron Lee gives me Vernon Gholston vibes. Not a lot of experience. No real technique. Just a fast dude.

It's ok to misspell Packers that badly

It's ok to misspell Packers that badly

Knowing our luck, we'll have 20% of the players gets injured next year, 30% that can't grasp the playbook and 10% arrested and the best player in the draft will be a UDFA RB behind a good oline.

Sounds like you like more then just some but all my selections. I would be happy with getting 4 good & 1 star player with my first 5 picks. If they can contribute and help win ball games then that's the goal. I rather have 5 good players compared to 1 stud player then 4 guys who don't make the team. All 5 picks Reed, Bell, Cooper, Martinez & Murray could start day 1 for the Redskins and that's what I was looking for. I believe I got great value and team need with my picks. I appreciate your evaluation on my players and hope you are right about them. ESPN has Reed as the #1 DT, they have Bell as the #1 Safety, Cooper #8 WR, Martinez #7 ILB according to Walter Football, and Murray #13th best CB according to Walter Football. Once again thanks Cdumler on your evaluation.

Patriots have pretty much addressed immediate needs with free agents. We are drafting for back up positions that will become starters. Have to resign 3 defensive starters next year....Collins, Hightower and Butler.

 

[beardown07]

Some purty good looking drafts out thurr fellas!

From the AFC....Balt., Pitt., SD, KC were a few that caught my eye...there were others too


NFC...Dallas, GB, Minn., SF and TB all looked pretty good
