And I just didn’t understand why me out of all people because I’m great to everybody, I have a great personality and I just didn’t understand why everything just hit so hard with me out of everybody.”

He sounds absolutely Trumpish.

The thing that is so weird about the Philly reports is, Philly coaches, especially Duce Staley, reportedly loved this guy! So why would you get in an altercation with the team that supposedly covets you at the end of the first round?

You probably saw, but Howie Roseman flat-out denied the report he had an altercation in Philly, said that never happened, and Doug Pederson shook his head too when the question was asked. So, may not be true.

Out of all the picks this is my favorite. Now, hopefully, Jay will utilize the running game?!

NOTES ON THE SELECTION OF DERRIUS GUICE



· Guice is the 468th selection made by the Redskins in the Common Draft era (since 1967) and the 38th second-round selection in that time frame. He is the 56th second-round selection by the Redskins all-time since the institution of the draft in 1936.

· Guice becomes the first offensive player selected by the Redskins in the second round since the team selected three offensive players in the second round of the 2008 NFL Draft.

· Prior to Guice’s selection, the Redskins had selected a defensive player with their last six second-round picks, including the selections of LB Ryan Anderson (2017), S Su’a Cravens (2016), LB Preston Smith (2015), LB Trent Murphy (2014), CB David Amerson (2013) and DL Jarvis Jenkins (2011). (Note: The team did not make a second-round selection in 2012.) The six consecutive second-round picks on defensive players prior to Guice represented the longest stretch used by the Redskins on one side of the ball in the second round in the Common Draft era.

· Guice becomes the first running back selected by the Redskins in the second round since the team drafted Iowa’s Ladell Betts with the No. 56 overall pick in 2002.

· Dating back to 2011, the Redskins have now selected a running back in eight consecutive drafts, the team’s longest stretch since taking a running back in nine consecutive years across the 1983-91 drafts, which each consisted of 12 rounds.

· Guice is the 12th LSU product selected by the Redskins all-time, joining E Charlie Webb (1946), B Red Knight (1947), E Charlie Webb (1947), B Dan Sandifer (1948), T Ray Potter (1952), B Vince Gonzales (1956), E Billy Shoemake (1959), RB Bob Brunet (1968), TE Robert Royal (2002), S LaRon Landry (2007) and LB Perry Riley (2010).

· Guice becomes the first LSU product selected by the Redskins in the second round in franchise history. His selection marks the fourth-highest the Redskins have selected a player from LSU, trailing S LaRon Landry’s selection at No. 6 overall in 2007, B Red Knight’s selection at No. 17 overall in 1947 and B Dan Sandifer’s selection at No. 28 overall in 1948.

· Including the selections DL Jonathan Allen and LB Ryan Anderson in 2017 and the selections of DL Da’Ron Payne and Guice in 2018, the Redskins have selected four players from the Southeastern Conference with their four most-recent first- and second-round picks. It marks the first time the Redskins have taken four players from the same conference with four consecutive first- or second-round picks in the Common Draft era.

· Guice becomes the sixth player selected by the Redskins all-time with the No. 59 overall pick, joining T Roy Young (1938), T Bob Hendren (1946), T Hank Harris (1947), B Gary Lowe (1956) and FB Jim Snowden (1964).

· Guice was selected with a pick acquired by the Redskins in a draft day trade in which the Redskins sent the Nos. 44 and 142 overall picks to San Francisco in exchange for the Nos. 59 and 75 overall selections. It marked the Redskins first selection using an acquired pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. The No. 59 overall selection originally belonged to the New Orleans Saints, who traded the pick to San Francisco during the 2017 NFL Draft for the right to select 2017 Offensive Rookie of the Year Alvin Kamara.

Who was the prime motivator in the Griffin trade?? Bruce
Who was the main hold up on resigning Cousins?? Bruce

Sorry dude, those two moves alone set this team back 3-5 years. So yep, 70%

:pray: Allen to Raiders.

If this happens before the season starts, I will take that as a clear sign that Bruce did NOT run this draft.

Lions keep picking players before other teams can. Detroit drafted Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson at No. 43 with Washington preparing to take him at No. 44. Then Detroit drafted UL Laf CB Tracy Walker at No. 82 before Carolina could get him at No. 85. Always stories behind each pick.

Honestly heard little chatter about him for us, mostly Guice and Jones as better fits. Regardless, I’m happy with our pick (hopefully off field non reported incident) is smoke and hope your guy finally provides the Lions with a stable running game. Both our teams need one.

There was zero chatter about Johnson and the Skins. I am glad too, and I am equally glad the Lions jumped in front to take Johnson because he isn’t very good.

Actually Kevin on 980 loved him and talked about him quite a bit, Cooley was tepid on his fit after watching tape.
