    this RB class coming in could be very good. Just naming three right here adrian peterson, michael bush (broke his leg but is still a great talent), and michael hart. the jets have two second round picks and if the redskins continue on their pace, we could have a high second round pick. So they can really get a lot of talent in this draft. maybe a guard to replace kendall, a RB and how about a DT (provided that these problems are not solved in during the season .. hope they are!)

    I agree thats its way early to be talking about the draft right now...but if we are then I would rather get the stud DT in the upcoming draft(whomever that may be) instead of a running back

    Because its better then talking about Herman Edwards, better then talking about how Drob is a bust, when last year everyone was singing his praises, better then talking about the "handshake" with BB and mangini..and its 1000x's better then talking about Jerricho Cotchery's crotch

    How about letting a young, inexperienced O-Line work together for at least half a season before we say the running game needs a major upgrade. We also drafted a back in the 4th round who has yet to see a carry and another one in the 6th round the previous year who hasnt seen a carry in this system yet. Way too early yet to be even thinking about this.

    There isnt unless Frank Okam comes out but even if he does he doesnt fit our defense, unless he plays the end cause hes only 315 same size as dewayne.

    Okam should, and most likely will come out due to the weak SR class. Quinn Pitcock will also come out, though he might be to small[6-3 295] for the nose tackle positon

    DT, RT/ OG (I like what I've seen from Jones playing in the guard spot next to Ferg... they are young and I believe Jones is a perfect fit @ LG, just needs to learn another position... AGAIN), RB, LB, TE in order of need as far as I can see from watchin' so far...

    As a team under such reconstruction, we need all those picks. We have to address the running game, the DT position, maybe another Olineman, possibly a DE and a TE...although the best one in the draft will be gone...there is just a bunch of needs we need to address. Im not apposed to peterson, i love the guy....but this is a big RB class, if we dont get peterson, we can still get a show stopper....

    im not a believer in giving up a few picks for a guy.

    Aren't you a Pats fan? Logan Mankins went in the first round.
