The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

I'm in the vast minority - but I think Taylor and Winslow will be gone by #5. My pick is Steven Jackson - RB from Oregon State. I've seen him play live and several games on TV. Pure stud! If either of the other two fall to us - great too. But I think Jackson is the best to come out in a long time - a bit like LT in San Diego - but I think he's a bit more talented and better between the tackles... and that's saying a lot!

I see two options: draft Taylor and pick a smallish but quick DE in the 2nd (there are a few), a TE in the 3rd or 4th (whichever we have), and a RB and DT in FA.

or we trade down with NE - grab Udeze or Smith, draft perry with the next pick, and a TE (Watson Troupe or the guy from Utah)with our 3rd pick, and then sign Adams and another DE (kearse, in a perfect world) in FA.

Sapp is a fat turd, i don't want him on my team.

wouldn't mind a decent C either.

Even though I'm a VT fan I have to agree with Scooter about S.Jackson. If we go RB I would rather have SJ than KJ. I watched Jones all year and he is going to be explosive but, Jackson is better suited for power football. He will be a stud for someone.

Isn't Jackson 6'3? In which case he'd be more like Eddie George..Those big guys take some mean hits!!!

They do take hits but, Jackson doesn't run upright like George. He's runs with a lower center of gravity...similar to Ricky Williams.

If we really think that we need to p/u a RB in the draft then we can p/u Greg Jones in the 2nd round. Jackson or K. Jones are not worth the #5 pick. Sean Taylor should be around by #5. The 4 teams ahead of us are looking for QB, Receiver and OL. Sean Taylor is the man and is worthy of the #5 pick. We can address DT in the 3rd round with Donnell Washington.

I hope St Gibbs listens to you. You obviously know your football my friend

I'd love to see them get Taylor, but I suspect that Gibbs will have a hard time passing on Winslow, attitude or no.

jerseyskin: I think Kiper's right about Gibbs wish list... you noted his heavy use of TE for that 3rd down situation, and the Red Zone, but Didier was an animal in the Fly pattern as well... Gibbs wants that weapon.

I don't see Gibbs picking Winslow that high nor would I want him to. Go with Udeze or Taylor. Someone said to trade down with the Pats for their picks, that wouldn't be a bad idea either even though I doubt Udeze would be available. I also would love to have Greg Jones in the second round if he's available.

help pls!

why do the skins have the 41st overall pick? last time i checked, there are only 32 nfl teams. our 1st rounder is #5, should our 2nd rounder be #37 overall?!

thanks

I think Matt Bowen is the real deal...and he'll prove that next year.

I'm with JH on this one. I think we should focus big time on D-line (FA and draft) and RB. Put me down for Harris.

I think kevin jones will be a premier back in the league for the next ten years. We shouldn't pass him up.

If Bailey goes, we definitely need to get Taylor. Hopefully we can get a 1st & 2nd for him if he goes, and also get Harris. I think there will be ok backs in the 2nd round. Look at Dominic Davis. He was a 4th rounder. But Ron Dayne was a 1st. Its tough to tell with offense but defense, what you see is usually what you get.
