8.  Marcus Mariota, QB – Oregon: (6-4, 217) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Good.  Marcus Mariota is one of the top quarterbacks in the draft and reports say that if he’s on the board at number five the Redskins will take him.  The Redskins would need to certainly need to consider drafting him if he falls to them at number five, but they would also more than likely trade down if he fell to them.  LW # 11

7.  Shane Ray, OLB/DE – Missouri:  (6-3, 245) Projected Round – Top 10.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Good.  The Redskins are thin at outside linebacker and they didn’t re-sign Brian Orakpo.  Shane Ray is a terror off the edge and that ability is a commodity in the NFL.  Ray couldn’t compete at the NFL Combine and he’ll have to make up for what he lost there with his pro day.     LW # 6
