Maybe this is a miss.

We traded down from 21, got 22 and a 6th next year.

Houston used 21 on Fuller. We used 22 on Doctson.

Fuller after 4 games: 19 catches, 323 yards, 2 TDs, healthy

Doctson after 4 games: 2 catches, 66 yards, inactive with Achilles

I realize it's very early and there are arguments for other possible misses here.

Yeah anything is possible. But I see Will Fuller as more comparable to Jamison Crowder than Josh Docston. Crowder this year has 18 catches, 2 TDs, 200 yards, healthy, and we didn't have to spend a first round pick on him.

My issue with the Redskins and Docston is that 1) I think we probably should have put him on IR this season and let him fully heal and 2) I still think d-line probably should have been the pick there. Kind of seems like the team is more concerned about the PR of Docston not playing.
