2017 NFL Draft: Washington Redskins 7-round mock
The Redskins have 10 picks in the 2017 NFL Draft. Who will they be adding to their roster?
The Redskins are likely the toughest team to predict when it comes to their draft decisions seeing that they have no General Manager. However, we will try to do just that with our Washington Redskins mock draft. The mindset is that this team has to go all-in with Kirk Cousins this season and see how far they can go.
Haason Reddick
Linebacker, Temple
Reddick is a versatile piece that can add to the defense right away. Coming from high school, Reddick was a safety and a running back. In college, Reddick was a defensive end. In the NFL, he profiles best as a linebacker. If that does not speak to versatility, what does?
Reddick is a senior from Temple and boosted his stock more than anybody this offseason. It started with an impressive performance at the combine and led to an elite day at the combine. It solidified his status as a top 20 player, and with the 17th overall pick in the draft, he would be worth it.
The Redskins just drafted Su’a Cravens who is a similarly versatile piece and a former safety playing linebacker. Having these two as their linebackers in the nickel would bring a lot of speed and talent to the field and would make the defense leaps and bounds better than the season before. The Redskins would love to see Haason Reddick on the board at pick 17.
