2015 – Redskins NFL Draft – Big Board:  This is a big board ranked to the specific needs of the Washington Redskins and not the NFL.  Players the Redskins might be drafting with their first pick.  It’s possible the Redskins might trade down in the first round too, we rank players into the mid to first round.

32.  Eli Harold, OLB – Virginia: (6-4, 250) Projected Round – 1st-2nd.  Eli Harold had a good performance at the NFL Combine and he should now be on the Washington Redskins radar.  There is a need to add depth at the outside linebacker position and if the Redskins trade down, Harold will be a player they look at.    LW # 27

31.  Eric Rowe, CB / S – Utah: (6-1, 205) Projected Round – 1st-2nd.  Utah’s Eric Rowe can play cornerback and safety and the Redskins need help at both positions, particularly at free safety.  So Eric Rowe could give the Redskins a lot talent and versatility in their defensive backfield.  LW # NR

30.  Eddie Goldman, DT – Florida State: (6-3, 320) Projected Round – 1st. Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Good.  The Redskins could use more young talent on the defensive line.  Eddie Goldman could play either defensive end or nose tackle in the Redskins 3-4 defense.  LW # 32

29.  Arik Armstead, DE – Oregon: (6-7, 292) Projected Round – 1st.  The Redskins don’t have an immediate need at defensive end as they’ve loaded up at the position in free agency.  However, they could still stand to add more youth at the position and Oregon’s Arik Armstead had great size and could be developed to play the five technique DE for the Redskins.    LW # NR
