Audible_Red40 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I was totally on board with taking a chance on the Vols OT Antonio Richardson. Talent alone was worth a late rounder or at least signing as an UDFA. That knee may not be nice to him. He'll probably be IR'd, which sometimes may help these talented late rounders. Signed with the Vikings i believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrelgreenie Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Wow, that draft list is huge. Maybe players selected before pick 34 should be excluded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Are the guys listed in the OP players we wish had been drafted/signed instead of who we did draft/sign...or just additional players we liked as well? And any players that were drafted before #34 should be excluded from the list imo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Est.1974 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Wanted Mewhort, but we got great value with the Moses pick. Jordan Zumwalt as a late pick too, but happy with our choice in the 6th round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And any players that were drafted before #34 should be excluded from the list imo... Wow, that draft list is huge. Maybe players selected before pick 34 should be excluded? Ok, the original intention really was to track guys which spark the conversation, "Damn it, we could have had that guy but our FO **** the bed and selected that loser instead" So, guys that we could have gotten, and didn't. That's easier to figure out in the draft, because you know the guys who were available when you selected. But there were some man-crushes that caused a lot of strife when they signed elsewhere in FA as well. So I'll go through the list and remove the draft picks that were before #34 (though if somebody wanted to help me on that, I would greatly appreciate it. ) One thing I noticed when I was collating all of these picks is that there are several UDFA and late round picks in the draft section. It will be interesting to see how many of them actually make teams. I don't mind tracking prospects, but honestly, the list is a bit long, and I'd like to pair it down a little to maybe just the reasonable group that people are interested in. BPA. I wish we'd gotten that guy. Hail. Dude, I think you need to hit a pub and have a few drinks. I get the feeling that the 'Skins could have drafted Joe Montana, Barry Sanders, Anthony Munoz and Deacon Jones and you'd still be moaning about something. Relax. It's not as bad as it might seem.

redskins55 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Khari Fortt. I think he was perfect for our MLB and ST. Saints got him in the 4th. Good Pick up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskins55 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I must be missing something but I don't know why people were impressed with Shayne Skov, he is slow and just okay. He was overrated by some fans IMO. I know we signed Cody Hoffman as a UDFA, but why not draft him instead of drafting TE Ted Bolser or Zach Hocker in the 7th round? Yea I didn't see what the big deal was about Skov nor Borland. I played MLB and just didn't see "IT" in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darrelgreenie Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 These picks were gone before pick 47: DeMarcus Lawrence - (OLB) Cowboys Jimmie Ward - (S) 49ers Jordan Matthews - (WR) Eagles Kyle Fuller - (CB) Bears Marqise Lee - (WR) Jags Rashede Hageman - (DE) Falcons Ryan Shazier - (LB) Steelers Stephon Tuitt - (DT) Steelers Xavier Su'a-filo - (OG) Texans It would be cool if people could put their name on their guys that way its easy to point the finger at me them later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s0crates Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 As I'm reading through this thread, I'm thinking many of the complaints we saw about our picks on draft day reflect the complainers' disappointment in not picking "that guy" more than they do any real problem with the guy we did pick.

And then a lot of times neither guy, either our pick or the one they wanted, actually makes a 53 man roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter_R Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I took the liberty of categorizing the draft picks. I also removed the picks before the original second rounder. Needed Pick 34 (Original): Cyrus Kouandjio - (OT) Bills DeMarcus Lawrence - (OLB) Cowboys Joel Bitonio - (OT) Browns Jordan Matthews - (WR) Eagles Marqise Lee - (WR) Jags Rashede Hageman - (DE) Falcons Stephon Tuitt - (DT) Steelers Round 2: Pick 47 (Cowboys): Jace Amaro - (TE) Jets Timmy Jernigan - (NT) Ravens Troy Nicklas - (TE) Cardinals Round 3: Pick 78 (Cowboys): Gabe Jackson - (OG) Raiders Louis Nix - (NT) Texans Terrence Brooks - (FS) Ravens Round 4: Ka'Deem Carey - (RB) Bears Martavis Bryant - (WR) Steelers Pierre Desir - (CB) Browns Round 5: Avery Williamson - (ILB) Titans Cyril Richardson - (OG) Bills David Yankey - (OG) Vikings John Urschel - (OG) Ravens Round 6: Daniel McCullers - (DT) Steelers Round 7: Ahmad Dixon - (S) Cowboys Jeff Janis - (WR) Packers Jeremy Gallion - (WR) Pats Michael Campanaro - (WR) Ravens Michael Sam - (DE) Rams Seantrel Henderson - (OT) Bills Yamin Smallwood - () Undrafted: Alex Bazzie - () Brandon Coleman - (WR) Saints Christian Jones - (LB) Bears Craig Loston - (S) James Hurst - (OT) Ravens Shane Skov - (LB) 49ers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Blaster Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Wish we would have drafted Bill Turner (OG/OT), who was taken by the Dolphins in Round 3 right after the 'Skins pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKKI8 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I didn't want the Redskins to draft him but I hate the fact that the Giants drafted Andre Williams in the 4th round. He reminds me of Alfred Morris when watching his tape and I will bet he has a very good year for the Giants, he is just the kind of RB the Giants needed and add him to all the offensive lineman they brought in as free agents and the Giants might have a running game back. .

silent1903 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 I was surprised we took so few defensive players, seeing as we had so many issues there. My regrets are passing on Nix in the 3rd and taking Long, and then missing a Guard, Yankey in the 5th instead. We could have had: 2 - OLB - Murphy 3a - OT - Moses 3b - NT - Nix 4 - CB - Breeland (or a number of evenly matched CB eg Desir, McGill I think) 5 - OG - Yankey 6 - RB - Seastrunk 7a - S - Dixon 7b - ILB Smallwood or the top punter, or maybe a punter who can kickoff Now that's a draft!

Nighthawk Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 In free agency the list of players "I wanted" was short. Not that we didn't need players, but I felt like we needed multiple players and not just one big name FA. WR Ted Ginn - specifically for KR duties. OG Geoff Schwartz S - Chris Clemons In the draft, my top three "Wanted" players were chosen in the 1st round. LB Ryan Shazier S Deone Bucannon CB Bradley Roby My 4th choice was none other than LB Trent Murphy followed by LB Jerrimiah Attaochu RB Bishop Sankey WR Cody Latimer S Dez Southward CB Stanley Jean-Baptiste LB Kevin Pierre-Louis WR Quincy Enunwa QB Logan Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higgs44 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Pretty much each and every 3-4 DLman ion the draft. This draft was loaded with em, which is rare, and we come away with 0...baffling to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 ALL: OP is updated with the information from DG and Hunter_R, as well as a few additional from other posters. If anybody hears of any of the UDFA's getting cut (already), please post in the thread, I'll update the OP. I plan to go back look for statuses on guys at the following times: 1. During Training Camp 2. After Final Roster cuts 3. 4 times during the season. But if you hear of anything for any of these guys prior, let me know, I'll post the details. Why? There are teams who trade up and the Skins had that option.. Fair point. I included. HOWEVER, I don't think it would be very fair to belly-ache too much if a mid-first round guy turned out to be a stud. Sure, the 'Skins could have traded up. But that would have cost them ammunition they really didn't have. I think everyone should put their name or initials next to their choices. I think it's going to be obvious looking through the thread who wanted who. I wish there was an easier way to track it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
