Part One: The Offense
Part Two: The Defense and Special Teams
Part Three: The Contract Years
Part Four: The Draft Picks
Part Five: What the Redskins Must Do
=====
Speculation is rampant for every team, as a member of an NFL braintrust it is in your best interest to disinform, divert and deny your draft motivation leading up to draft day. Despite our beliefs and allegiances as football fans it is better not to put a lot of credence in what you think your team is going to do.
Unless you are a Redskins fan that is. Then you should panic.
Here is what the Redskins must do tomorrow:
Round one: the Redskins must pick the best offensive tackle on the board. Jason Smith and Eugene Monroe (Wahoowa!) will both be off the board, Andre Smith looks like the target with Michael Oher the other option. Washington needs to rejuvenate the line that protects franchise quarterback Jason Campbell.
Round three: the Redskins should examine linebackers that can play the strong side and run stopping defensive ends. Washington is sorely lacking in run stoppage at the end position and Phillip Daniels and Renaldo Wynn are short term solutions and not improvements at the position. Linebacker is the position of greater need here. Do not get distracted by outliers.
Round five: the Redskins should look at the linebacker or defensive end position that was not picked in round three. Less of a chance of starting talent in the fifth round so the team should focus on talent that can be developed. If highly a evaluated pick was available at this position the Redskins should consider it.
Round six: the Redskins should go back to the lines, selecting the best offensive or defensive lineman on the board regardless of position. An outlier could be attractive here.
Round seven: wild card. Select the best player on the board. All positions are eligible.
The Redskins are on the clock.
Draft beer selection from here.
