18.  Todd Gurley, RB – Georgia: (6-1, 222) Projected Round – 1st-2nd.  Todd Gurley has top ten talent but a torn ACL has hurt his draft stock.  The Redskins need a running back after losing Roy Helu in free agency.  Gurley might not be ready to go at the start of the season but when he is ready, he could become a valuable weapon in the Redskins offense.  LW # 21

17.  Melvin Gordon, RB – Wisconsin: (6-1, 207) Projected Round – 1st.  The Redskins will undoubtedly add a running back at some point in the draft, but Gordon will more than likely be gone before the Redskins make their pick in the second round of the draft.  LW # 19
