Califan007 The Constipated Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 They say that now. LOL LOL...I do remember some sports media member saying that their source told them the Skins had Mariota rated #1 on their board...so much for that.

Larry Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 This feels like a fast 1st round. I was thinking that, too. If the Commish could announce the picks in less than five minutes, we'd be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carex Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 this draft seems to be shaping up a bit differently expected. RBs in the first. Edge rushers not the be all, end all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrobert Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Really curious if one of the top 2 Safeties or Gregory will be around tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker77 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 The more I examine this pick the more I'm thoroughly happy with it. Like most here I was disappointed we passed on Wiliams but how can any fan not be excited about the team finally addressing the RT position! Moses unfortunately wasn't the answer and there is a chance that Trent isn't here next year. This pick addresses both issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice_of_Reason Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Apparently AlMo has said he approves of our pick, too. I think they desperately need a blocking TE who can set the edge. Scherff is going to immediately help the right side on the run game. But if the TE gets blown up consistently, that's going to make Morris' job harder.

Nighthawk Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 The Redskins picked the Trent Williams of this years draft. He will start from day one and unless he gets hurt, we'll never look back. Locker room leader, rock SOLID. A no fail pick from a team that has failed on too many picks in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD Riggo Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Scherf isn't projected to play tackle at the nfl level. That's one of the reasons that pick sucked I don't know where you got that nonsense from, but he was high on almost everyone's board. Considered the best OL prospect in the draft. He would have certainly been gone in the next few picks after us if we didn't take him. But obviously, they all had him high because he can't play in the NFL!

TheGreek1973 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Apparently AlMo has said he approves of our pick, too. only if he plays left guard. RT I don't see it. Remember we were saying the same thing about Moses how we can coach up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veretax Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I think they desperately need a blocking TE who can set the edge. Scherff is going to immediately help the right side on the run game. But if the TE gets blown up consistently, that's going to make Morris' job harder. Worse, now we need a TE who can block and catch, and a RB who can find guys to block in Pass Pro :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice_of_Reason Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 6 O-line picks in 24 Selections... Again...Again...Just Sayin It's like SM knew that he could pick the best OL at 5 because he wasn't going to get a top OL in the second. Maybe dude knows something. I wouldn't have minded Williams. But I like addressing the OL with a high pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrecker Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 So who is the guy we want in the 2nd? I would want Collins if he is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stadium-Armory Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Shane Ray, fresh off a marijuana charge, drafted by the Broncos. I hope the temptation for legal reefer madness isn't too much for him to handle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldpost Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 The run on OL has been a little surprising.. If Landon Collins is still there, it means a MAJOR red flag has come up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gatito Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I do not understand this board or Skins fans in general sometimes. We collectively know we have sucked on the oline over the last 5+ years. We have patch worked our way to mediocre at best abaolute crap at our worst. We have CLEAR need and take the best OL prospect in the draft after no one clearly offered us a trade which had better value for the #5 pick and people complain. People pull their hair out like the sky is falling. This kid is not perfect. Few rookie prospects are but he has versatility. Can play LG or RT and has enough talent to start at either position day #1! We have one of the best if not the best Oline coach in the business today and yet people still ****. It makes no sense to me. Maybe a bit of a need pick but our needs have not been addressed in the past at this pick adresses a need. Once we took Sherff there was a run on Oline talent. It seems like we knew that we were not going to be able to trade back and get this guy. I don't think the Saints would have taken Peat over him. I am 100% sure the Giants would have taken him if he was on the board if he was still there. People in this draft are clearly looking for Oline talent. Seems like we took the best of the bunch. No one knows if it will work out but to me it make perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
