NFL Draft 2016: Redskins Big Board 1.0 – A CB Number 1?

19.  Will Fuller, WR – Notre Dame: (6-0, 184) Projected Round – 2nd. Will Fuller is one of the top deep threats in the draft.  He has great speed and has shown the ability to get behind a defense.  The Redskins might need to add Fuller’s deep threat ability if the decide to move on from their current deep threat DeSean Jackson.  LW #
