Blogging about the NFL Draft and the NFL Scouting Combine.
The 2022 NFL Draft is upon us! The action will kick off tonight at 8pm in Las Vegas with the first round. The second and third rounds will take place tomorrow night, and the remaining rounds four through seven will go on Saturday.
Here is an overview of some of the things you might need to know going into the Draft.
It’s a time honored tradition to rate how a team drafted the day after the draft. None of the players have even signed a contract yet. None of them have played a down of football yet. It is tough to rank much, other than wether or not a team filled some needs, and if their picks met with experts’ opinions.
Washington definitely filled a few needs, and the majority of their selections were considered solid at the position. Their 19th overall pick Jamin Davis, was considered a reach by some, but was climbing many other’s draft boards as well. Third round cornerback Benjamin St-Juste was also ranked a little lower than he was chosen.
The pick is in. With the 19th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, Washington selected Jamin Davis out of Kentucky. The 6’3″ 234 pound linebacker is a physically impressive specimen, and is coming off a fantastic season for the Wildcats.
In 2020, he registered 102 tackles, 1.5 sacks, and three interceptions – including one returned for a touchdown. He also had a forced fumble and a blocked field goal – and all in ten games.
USA Today put out a great trade Value Chart and distributed it in various schemas to suit each NFL team. I never saw one for Washington, so I scarfed the Denver Broncos one, and made the necessary modifications.
I did notice that none of their versions had the new Cowboys logo on it, but mine does. *wink*
No. More. Sleeps.
Every NFL fan’s favorite day of the offseason is here – the NFL Draft.
Roger Goodell has been tested, and found to be COVID free. He has been cleared to offer awkward hugs to everybody. Thank god!
The Washington Football Team could really use a left tackle. Perhaps they have been a bit spoiled over the years. Washington may not have dominated the league for the last two decades, but they have always had a great left tackle. And before that?
The 2021 NFL Draft is just days away. The Washington Football Team will be looking to land a superstar for years to come with the 19th overall pick.
Here is a look at Washington’s five best ever first round draft picks.
This year’s 2021 NFL Draft will mark the 86th annual meeting of the National Football League, to select newly eligible players for the 2021 NFL season. The draft is scheduled to be held in Cleveland from April 29 to May 1, 2021. Jacksonville Jaguars select first, and are ‘on the clock’.
Washington’s NFC East rivals the Philadelphia Eagles have the most selections with eleven. Seattle have the fewest picks, with just four. The Washington Football Team enter the 2021 NFL draft with eight total picks, including the 19th overall pick.
The 2020 NFL Draft was the 85th annual meeting of the National Football League. The Washington Redskins ended up making eight selections over the weekend, including the second overall pick. With that pick, they chose defensive end Chase Young out of Ohio State University.
The draft was originally scheduled to be held in Paradise, Nevada, but was instead held via videoconferencing due to the Covid pandemic.
Here are the 2020 NFL Draft Selections for the Washington Redskins:
THN will be live blogging here for the first round. We’ll track the picks and the trades so you know what the Redskins options are when they pick, whether they stay at #15, move up, or trade back
