2016 NFL Draft: Redskins Big Board 5.0

4.  Vernon Hargreaves III, CB – Florida:  (5-11, 199) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  Redskins general manager tends to lean to bigger cornerbacks but if Vernon Hargreaves is on the board when the Redskins pick I think McCloughan might make an exception.  Hargreaves is a playmaker on defense and has the kind of cover skills that make a difference regardless of size.  LW # 4

3.  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
