I wanted to draft him so badly, even move up and I wanted him, while he was on the block. Easily one of thee best defensive players in the league. Toss up between him and Adams for best DB. Damn that video was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 PFF weighing in on the off season. https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-offseason-needs-for-all-32-nfl-teams-2020 WASHINGTON REDSKINS: RUNNING MATES FOR TERRY MCLAURIN AND QUINTON DUNBAR Secondary needs: offensive line, tight end The Redskins had one elite player at both wide receiver (McLaurin) and cornerback (Dunbar) this season. That’s a good start, but the problem was that the remaining players at each of those positions left a lot to be desired. McLaurin had an 85.7 PFF receiving grade, one of the highest marks that we’ve seen from a rookie wide receiver in the PFF era. No other wide receiver had a grade higher than 65.0. Similarly, Dunbar ranked second among all cornerbacks in coverage grade (89.5) to only Richard Sherman, but no other Redskins’ cornerback topped 65.0. Getting some depth at those positions should be a priority for Washington. The offensive line had a decent season without its best player, Trent Williams. The unit finished 13th in the final PFF offensive line rankings, but its top-ranked offensive lineman from this season — Brandon Scherff — is set to be a free agent, and there are still questions at the tackle position given the age of Donald Penn and the regressing play of Morgan Moses. Tight end also becomes a spot to attack, with Jordan Reed missing the entire 2019 season and playing just over 700 snaps in the past three years due to injury.

@DCGoldPants Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 oh man, so many holes. Guess some will be filled in FA and the rest in the draft or not at all. LT, TE, RB, CB come to mind immediately. I wonder what RBs have mid-round grades who could be Alfred Morris type finds. Like somebody else said, AP a year older. Guice I hope for, but don't plan on ever being healthy, then Love coming off his injury and a year off. Thompson is gone. Need players who have little to no history of injury.

Seriously though, when thinking about Simmon vs Young Steve made a great point. Simmons doesn't play nasty and has been able to rely of freak athleticism his entire career, where as Young has a pedigree and a know hard study and extra practice kind of player, which is what makes the great, goats. 1 minute ago, @SkinsGoldPants said: Good point.

Skinsinparadise Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 9 minutes ago, Koolblue13 said: Anderson, Foster and SDH If Del Rio plays 4-3 underfront as some say he prefers, you'd have the OLB play close to the line of scrimmage so it would ironically have a similar look to a 3-4 at times. If they kept Kerrigan, he Young, Sweat can interchange at OLB in some fronts. That's what Del Rio did at times with Von Miller. So at OLB that can probably platoon-rotate some players. 75% or so of the game is nickel now so you'd often only have two linebackers on the field most of the time anyway.

Anderson, Foster and SDH Simmons calls a lot on defense & plays every position, it’s not as easy to let loose when you’re asked to be a FS, CB & Edge on the same drive. That said he has plenty of nasty moments, but I agree with Steve that he seems to let up at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VaK9Trainer Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 If Joe Reed/WR/Virginia is still around in the 4th or 5th round, I'd pounce on him. Guy is a playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, I was about to be the lone Simmons over young voice until the smarter people told me to sit down, then thankfully KDawgs been saying it how I would. I'm totally crushing on Simmons. I think he's going to absolutely destroy the combine also and somehow move up. I'm fine if somebody wants to leap in for our pick for a QB and we end up with Simmons over young and another pick, but I also think that's a bad idea. lol Welcome back btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would actually like to see Kerrigan in as a rush DE as well. IF we take young, do you know the terror of a 3rd and long with Sweat and Young standing up flanking Kerrigan Payne Ioannidis and Allen?

Plus you're more apt to him dropping back in coverage at OLB if he ain't got a hand in the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
