|
|
Here are my preferences for position needs and respective player needs:
#1 DE we must have at least one stud here. Draft possibilities: Udeze, Smith or Odom. FA possibilities: Kearse, Wistrom
#2: DT we must upgrade here. Lots of talent available in draft: Starks, Harris, Wilfork, Childress, Dockett, Washington, Edwards. Do not appear to be many FAs available.
#3: RB is a need. I would trade down from #5 and pickup an extra 2nd rounder and 4th rounder for this. Greg Jones should be our target. Maybe trade for a Dillon? Or look at FAs.
#4: TE: Our needs on defense outweigh TE need but I believe we take Watson in early 3rd round.
#5: QB: Pickup Rich Gannon or Kurt Warner off waivers if, as expected, they are released in March.
#6: C: We need to upgrade here and a mid round pick can push to start or be ready to start in 1-2 years.
#7: SS: I'm not that negative on our current players but draft a headhunter in the 5 round.
So here are my picks:
#18? (via trade) Trade our #5 for mid round #1 and mid 2nd and 4th rounders. Mid 1st round draft stud DE even if we do sign Kearse of Wistrom
#42 Draft RB; Greg Jones
#50? (via trade) Draft DT; there are a number still available
#72 Draft TE; Ben Watson
#125?: (via trade) Draft Center; Jake Grove or Nick Leckey
#134: Draft SS; a headhunter and special teamer will do here |

| I look forward to seeing which undrafted college players the Skins sign after the draft based in the input from the experienced coaching staff - am sure there will be some keepers... |

| They said on ESPN that Gannon and Warner are going to stay with their teams. Ben Watson will not be available after the second round and we will probably sign a RB, so we won't need to draft one. Sam Adams, Ted Washington, and Cornelius Griffin are available free agents. |

| Well, Gibbs fan, you're mostly right. But most of the success from undrafted free agents was Bobby Beathards doing. Also a great example of our success was in 1987 with the scabs. I actually look forward to the draft this year unlike last year (3 picks... are you kidding me????!!!!!). |

I'm curious to see what happens there too. This year we have four picks (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th). I can't wait until next year when we get all seven.

Theres nothing crazy about that. Id rather have two first rounders than the #5 pick. The only guy I would consider drafting in the top 5 would be Sean Taylor, but I would rather have Vince Wilfork AND Randy Starks!
