However, at the end of the day the defense did not allow a single touchdown & held a good Dallas offense to only 18 points.

He's a beast. My favorite Redskin's player since Sean Taylor.

No love for Fletcher? He's been doing it day in and day out for a bit longer?

Don't get me wrong... Kerrigan is a monster on his side... clearly making a mark in the first 3 games, but, Orakpo's been drawing holding penalties every game, and Fletcher is still just sick. That is one bad troika. I think they are ALL my favorite.

Kerrigan already IS something special. I look forward to him being amazing for us for many, many years. IMO, the defense needs a CB and depth. The personnel are pretty solid across the starting board. Very much look forward to having Jarvis Jenkins lining up next to Kerrigan next year.

From what we saw in preseason, that will just about make it impossible for the RT to expect any help from the RG... and will be a nightmare for our opponents.

Right now, Kerrigan is the 3rd best LB on this team.

Fletcher is great, as is Orakpo. There's something about Kerrigan though. When I first saw Sean Taylor play in the preseason, I liked the way he played the game. I get a similar feeling about Kerrigan's style of play, and I think he'll become a great 3-4 LB.

I also give a nod to players who the Skins drafted, but that's not a slight to Landry or Orakpo. They'd be 1B and 1C for me.

Jenkins was doing pretty good at all three DL positions... moving him around will drive
OL coaches crazy... one play it's Kerrigan an Jenkins, then it's Orakpo and Jenkins... I CAN'T WAIT

The scouting report and college highlights had me thinking, YEAH this guy is gonna be GOOD. He'll only get better and better.

I have a feeling that by the time we get to the midpoint of next year, we are going to realize that the Jenkins loss was the biggest the team had this year. Everyone is gushing over Kerrigan (rightly so), but Jenkins was clearly better earlier and would have dynamically changed the way this defense played. Recall that there seemingly were no defensive snaps in which he was on the field that you didn't hear his name mentioned. That kid will wind up being the steal of our draft this year and Better than Kerrigan, which means those 2 will be dominating together for YEARS!!

Good drafting so far. We turned the pick that ultimately became Blaine Gabbert into Kerrigan AND Jenkins. If those guys turn into Pro Bowl caliber players, that shows how the Draft is the key to building a great team. We have a full draft next year, as well.
