2016 NFL Draft: Redskins Big Board 5.0

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 of the 2016 NFL Draft too, so we rank players into the second round as well.

30.  Tyler Boyd, WR – Pittsburgh:  (6-2, 200) Projected Round – 2nd.  Wide receiver will be one of the positions that the Redskins will need to address in the 2016 NFL Draft.  They’ll  need size and perhaps more speed depending on which veteran receiver is no longer with the team in 2016.  Tyler Boyd has the ability to help in both areas and is one of the most acrobatic receivers in the draft.     LW # 29

29.  Kendall Fuller, CB – Virginia Tech:  (6-0, 197) Projected Round – 2nd.  The Washington Redskins lack depth at cornerback.  They will certainly have to draft one in order to replenish their depth at the position.  Kendall Fuller suffered a serious knee injury last season but before he went down he was considered one of the top cornerback prospects in the 2016 NFL Draft.     LW # 30
