NFL Mock Draft 2016: Week 14 edition

25. Washington Redskins

The Redskins simply need to get better. This is one of those teams that has so many holes, the best available player is the right pick. With the way the board is falling to general manager Scot McCloughan here, Nassib makes all the sense in the world. Ryan Kerrigan is the only pass-rusher on the team worth talking about, something of a major problem when he’s either hurt or ineffective. The other reason Nassib makes for a nice selection is he instantly turns the front seven into a younger, more athletic unit.

Many Redskins fans are going to be clamoring for a quarterback throughout the offseason, and it is understandable. Kirk Cousins is not terrible but he is not the answer either, while Robert Griffin III is gone at the end of the season. Washington needs to stabilize its quarterback situation, but this is a weak class for that position and forcing the issue will only make it worse. The Redskins simply need to acquire talent in hopes of making a postseason run in 2016 with a respectable record, something that can be done with a few more pieces on both sides of the ball. Hopefully Washington avoids the flashy pick.
