The Washington Redskins: Screwing up drafts since 1999

"I have to say, Vinny, this idea of drafting while drunk? BRILLIANT! I'm giving you another raise."
"Thanks, Dan! Hey, pass the crack pipe over, will you?"

First Pick: Devin Thomas (WR)

I know nothing about Thomas, but Berman and company seemed pretty high on him. Plus, we need a good receiver. The Bengals don't seem to want to give us Chad Johnson, no matter how much we're willing to overpay for him, Randle El will never be more than a solid number two receiver, and sadly, I think Santana Moss's days as a starter are numbered. So it was a good idea to get some fresh legs.

Now that our receiver needs are taken care of, we can move onto defense and the offensive line, right?

Second Pick: Fred Davis (TE)

Or not.

Wow. This pick makes no sense. We already have a great tight end in Cooley, and we still have holes to fill in other position. We could have found a second tight end much later in the draft. This was a complete waste of a pick.

Well, at least it can only go up from here.

Third Pick: Malcolm Kelly (WR)

Or not.

Another receiver? Did Snyder secretly hire Matt Millen this morning? Exactly how is Campbell supposed to connect with all these receivers if he's getting sacked on every play?

You know, people can justify these picks by tossing around the phrase "West Coast Offense" all they want (and strangely, they are), but it's not going to do jack for us if the rest of the team is falling apart.

Finally, speaking of both receivers and wastes: WTF?

Brandon Lloyd's a key loss? In what way? They're obviously not counting Sean Taylor, but geez, way to make Mark Brunell and Reche Caldwell feel good about themselves.

Besides, during this off season, the Redskins have lost three janitors, five ushers, and a concession stand worker who was responsible for dispensing beer, all of whom were more key to the organization than Brandon Lloyd. So ESPN got it completely wrong.
