2.  Mackensie Alexander, CB – Clemson:  (5-10, 195) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  With the loss of top cornerback Chris Culliver to a serious knee injury the Redskins depth at cornerback is very thin.  They still have Bashaud Breeland and late season surprise Quinton Dunbar returning in 2016.  However, Mackensie Alexander is considered to be the top cornerback in the draft.  It’s doubtful that he’ll be on the board when the Redskins pick but if he is they’d have to take him.   LW # 2

1.  A’Shawn Robinson, DT – Alabama:  (6-3, 312) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  A’Shawn Robinson is arguably the top defensive tackle in the 2016 NFL draft.  He’s a load inside and has the athleticism to go with it.  This makes him a perfect fit for the Redskins 3-4 defense. Robinson will more than likely not be on the board when the Redskins pick but strange things can happen sometimes in the draft and you never know but if Robinson slides down the board the Redskins would be smart to scoop him up.  LW #1
