Usually, Redskins fans are excited during the offseason and free agent signings are plentiful. The 2011 offseason is quite the contrary. With a questionable lockout situation and a new front office in place in Washington, the Redskins will focus heavily on their selections in this year’s NFL Draft—set to begin Thursday, April 28th.
Although the team has a total of eight draft selections in seven rounds, including the 10th overall pick, head coach Mike Shanahan and the war room are up against a tall order without would-be crucial selections in both the third and fourth rounds. As it has been in past years, the Redskins are in need of filling numerous holes in their roster and the front office will need to expend every bit of knowledge, wisdom and telepathy that they have in order to call this incoming draft class a success. Analyzing needs and understanding the team’s priority at each position in the draft process is half the battle.
First, taking a look at the offensive side of the ball, the Redskins could use a starter and/or serious help at almost every position. Along with my two cents, I’ve included what I think the Redskins’ front office believes is their ideal pick, their more likely pick and their potential steal at that specific position.
