Redskins 1st-round pick should be DL Vita Vea

Absolutely agree he needs to be the pick that would give the Redskins a scary defensive line paired with Allen

Problem with this is, there are three teams drafting ahead of us in need of IDL. Miami at 11, Oakland at 10 and Tampa Bay at 7. Granted Oakland has a slightly bigger need at CB, Miami just created a massive hole in the center of their DL with the departure of Suh, and Tampa Bay did the same thing when they cut Chris Baker. I don't think Vea nor Payne will still be on the board when we draft.

You think Payne is gone by #13?

Yeah, both Tampa Bay and Miami are in need of DL help, so, here's my formula:

Two teams (not counting Oakland) in need of DL help minus the top two DL men in the draft, = We're looking at alternatives.

I would not be surprised to learn Washington has held off signing Hankins because they are hoping that one or the other slips to them. If neither does, look for a more aggressive push to sign Hankins post draft.

BTW: As an alternative to those guys, I really like the motor and disruptiveness of Maurice Hurst. He a little smaller than I like but dude has the speed, hand skills and instincts to become a force to be reckoned with in the NFL.

I think IF both are gone, then we will and likely should go safety because Fitzpatrick or James has slipped.

 

[Sleepy T]

I’m not sure if both will be gone, but I don’t expect Vea to be there.

A great player will slide, history says it will, and like last year, we might be surprised at who it is.

Between the two S, LB, and DL, one will be there for us, probably even our choice of one of two of these guys.

So you think basically a rookie Allen and another rookie Vea would make are dline better.. that don't scare anybody?? And investing 2 years first round picks on dline smart??

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Now I would not be mad if they go payne or vea at 13th but keep this In mind we can lose out on Guice ,chubb and Michal then what at that point we will just keep same rb as last YEAR . Got to pull the trigger on the 2nd best RB at 13. Sorry

there are plenty of RBs that can help us Ballage and Penny being 2

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

Penny and Thompson are the same back

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

But I like penny

Yep. safety has been my prediction all along. We'll see!

Agreed, I just don't think DL will be one of those choices, at least not either of Vea, who won't be there or Payne who might slip to us. I just have doubts that he will based on teams ahead of us who are going to draft DL.

 

[countryroads316]

If neither are there best move is to trade down land a couple higher draft picks

 

[ehb5]

Penny and Thompson are the same back

How?

 

[countryroads316]

How?

yea not sure what he is talking about Penny would be an everyone down back Thompson is more of a 3rd down back receiver

 

[gkekoa]

Yes, Vea and Allen make our DL better.

Yes, investing 2years first round picks on DL is smart because they would both be BPA.

What !!!

 

[Buffalo_Nickel_1]

If we had rb penny we would use him like we do Thompson
