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

So I am doing a mock draft with the members over at www.thelionsfanatics.com and I have the Redskins. I am sitting at #13, trying to possibly trade, but if I stay put what should I do? I am thinking Oher, Davis, or Maybin because he can play either DE or OLB.

The following players have already been selected.

1|1 Detroit Lions - Aaron Curry, OLB, Wake Forest
1|2 St. Louis Rams - Eugene Monroe, LT, Virginia
1|3 Kansas City Chiefs - Jason Smith, LT Baylor
1|4 Seattle Seahawks - BJ Raji, DT Boston College
1|5 Cleveland Browns - Brain Orakpo, DE/OLB Texas
1|6 Cincinnati Bengals - Andre Smith, LT Alabama
1|7 Oakland Raiders - Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri
1|8 Jacksonville Jaguars - Michael Crabtree, WR Texas Tech
1|9 Green Bay Packers - Everette Brown, DE/OLB Florida State
1|10 San Francisco 49ers - Mark Sanchez, QB USC
1|11 Buffalo Bills - Brian Cushing OLB - USC

Thanks for the help.

Oher-- for sure.

If it goes the way you project, I agree... it will be Oher... but, if Orakpo is there (as is very possible) it will be him (I'm assuming they lock up a starting RT by then). They may also go with Cushing, if he is there.

No way Sanchez goes before Sanford, or Maclin before Crabtree (despite the surgery) BTW...

I think you mean Stafford, right? And actually there is a decent possibility that Sanchez could go before Stafford. Apparently he made a really good impression on NFL teams during the combine, both on the field and during interviews. Stafford is likely to go ahead of Sanchez but it's certainly not a lock.

Orakpo and Cushing are gone.

It won't go that way, but if it does and Stafford is still there at 13, I could absolutely see the Redskins trading down with the Lions and picking up the 20th pick and an extra No. 2. (Heck, I'd do it for a No. 3).

Wow Stafford is still there. That might be a plan. Oher and Maybin work as well. I don't think the skins would draft Vontae Davis at this point with there current personnel.

Now if the draft could just actually unfold like that! Stafford still on the board and Detroit or someone else looking to trade up...

I agree, in the given scenario, Oher should be the Skins pick.

Gotta go Oher
