SkinsMaster88 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Well, so far Merling, Sweed, and Campbell appear to be the top choices. I agree with some others that there is more depth to the WR draft class with guys that should be available in the 2nd/3rd round that can contribute. At D-line, you have a fairly sharp drop-off with mainly situational players or from D-IAA, D-II by the time you get to the end of the 2nd round or 3rd round.

wordikin Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Mel Kiper's final mock has cromartie available to us. I say we draft Cromartie and move Springs to the Safety position oposite Laron Landry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sisko Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I'm hoping that either Williams or Otah somehow fall to us. If not, I'd be happy having Cherilius to plug in at RT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[[ghost]] Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I would rather go after Balmer. I want someone who can collapse the pocket with Griffin. I think Balmer would be able to do that. Balmer won't do that. He has a grand total of 6 career sacks. He's not going to pressure the QB at all. We need DE We also need a WR, CB, OG, OT, S, QB, as well as some other positions that we could use some luxury at. Mel Kiper's final mock has cromartie available to us. I say we draft Cromartie and move Springs to the Safety position oposite Laron Landry. Kiper is a great guy, but he can't project a draft to save his life. DRC will not be available for us at all. He will go in the top 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GibbsFactor Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Best player available round 1 and 2. Round 3 start locking up need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYskins Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I voted Merling just because he prob was a top 10 pick before the hernia. I would take one of those CBs as well as a second choice if Merling is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldskool Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Any of the best possible O-lineman, D-lineman or WR available is fine with me. Any other choice is a pick pissed away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsMaster88 Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 Merling is currently the favorite with almost 21% of the votes. Similar to the mock draft consensus around the web with Merling as the top choice predicted to go to the Redskins about 27% of the time. Get your votes in. Draft starts in just over 14 hours. I'll update the first post with the results at the start of the draft and when we're almost on the clock, provided we don't trade up/down/veteran.

Tmac1577 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 If Derrick Harvey Drops to 21 which is a big if we should take him if he doesnt lets hope one of those teams that needs a qb like baltimore will maybe want to move up to take flako or brohm will trade up with us to take them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HitStick21 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Jerod Mayo...hands down if hes there or Merling if Mayos gone.....Cambells gonna drop into the second or third dont know why hes up there...theres not gonna be top end lineman when our pick rolls around.....Nelson second round would be awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter_R Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Of the available choices, I'd have to go with Campbell. Skins need a pash-rusher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellsMyHero28 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I think DE is more important than WR and those are our top two needs. However, I'm just not overly impressed with any of the guys that are most likely going to be available. Merling/Campbell/Kelly/Sweed are just not that great IMO but it is the 21st pick and I guess I have to settle a little bit. If you ask me, Merling is the guy we need I don't think he CAN'T rush the passer overall and unless someone better falls to us I'd say go with him.

SuperSix14 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 after the combine id say Kenny P none of the other guys and going just off of the combine numbers seem to be as big of impact players as Kenny Phillips could be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellonothing86 Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I was watching one of those ESPN shows and they had a poll exactly with the same question as this thread, and it "Mario Manningham" was what the Redskins fans wanted. WHY??? is there any redskins fans that want manningham?? who actually thinks manningham will go in the first round???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevinklein Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 I'd like Phillip Merling, but Rodgers-Cromartie would be a lucky fortune were he to drop, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsMaster88 Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 I'd like Phillip Merling, but Rodgers-Cromartie would be a lucky fortune were he to drop, eh? He'd definitely be my choice if he falls. I didn't add him originally because he was in quite a few top 10s in mocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
