2011 Draft Selections (Before Draft Begins)

Redskins Draft Needs

QB, WR, OT, OG, CB, DE, ILB, RB, C

Sorry, the Redskins suck right now and need a bunch of help.

Selections

16. Washington Redskins Select: LB Ryan Kerrigan

This was probably a very good move for the Redskins because the truly need high motor, stand up players. Ryan Kerrigan will help this teams pass rush. I give Shannahan some credit for this pick but in reality, they need a lot of help to get things turned around.

Draft Grade: B

Second Round

41. Defensive Tackle Jarvis Jenkins (Trade with Texans)

The Redskins needed help up front as it appears that “big fat boy” Haynesworth can’t keep himself out of trouble. Hopefully Jenkins can make an impact right away.

79. Wide Receiver Leonard Hankerson

The Redskins are in great need of help at a few positions and wide receiver is one of them. Leonard Hankerson was a nice addition at this point in the draft.

105. Running Back Roy Helu

146. Defensive Back Dejon Gomes

177. Running Back Evan Royster

I know the Redskins took a running back earlier but I just think Evan Royster will be the one to get the football on this team in the end.

178. Wide Receiver Aldrick Robinson

213. Defensive Back Brandyn Thompson

217. Offensive Lineman Maurice Hurt

224. Defensive End Markus White

253. Nose Tackle Chris Neild
