Grade The Skins Draft

[Redskin in Canada]

B from me. The more I know the guys we drafted, the more I like them as players in terms of character and athletic ability.

I just don't get why we constantly trade future picks! It's mind-boggling.

wonker

We'll win the Super Bowl so next years 2nd round pick will be No. 64, thats awfully close to a third round pick.......

HaiL,

meh...

C --- we filled a LB spot with some depth and got a bunch of no names late in the draft.. what are we all talking about.. the draft with one pick in the first two rounds, i mean how well could we have done?

Winston Justice went in the 2nd round. Why lose the ability to get someone of his caliber next year this far in advance?

We traded future picks this year but next year we will trade future picks to move up in the draft. The thing is that we will always be behind but it will never catch up to us.

Also, I like the draft because we do not have to worry about a top pick holding out and causing more of a distraction.

We backload contracts and frontload the draft.
In the end we'll be out of draft picks and won't be able to keep our vets. But that will be in the end. Everybody fears the end but in the end it's the end, no more. Look at the cap, for years the experts, idiots, even some Redskins fans said it, "In the end the Skins will be in cap-hell and won't be able to field a team" The end came, a few months ago, it had to have because they kept saying it was comming, then they said it was here. The experts had to be correct because once the end came we didn't here how we survived it or what happen to us in the end. It had to be bad because no one is speaking of the fate the Redskins met when it came to the end.

Every year we get closer and closer to the end but it's a ways off (the cap was always 2 years around the corner until the end). We'll be ok until the end

why did they take the whole 9 Minutes to make the selection...?

Why not take all the time alloted to you?

What if someone was willing to give them a trade offer that was just ridiculous? You wait on the pick for any offers...and then make your selection.

It's not like Rocky was only available IF you picked him within 2 minutes. 9 minutes, 1 minute, who really cares?

I mean do you really think Joe Gibbs is the kind of guy to walk into ANYTHING unprepared and panics? Even if he wanted DQwell, which is pure speculation on your point, they certainly had a draft board, and knew who was right behind him.

Your talk of the end is quite ominous and scares me.

Gibbs knows what he is doing. I wouldn't have made the trade to move up in the 2nd round, but maybe that's why I'm not the team president.
