16.  Michael Thomas, WR – Ohio State: (6-3, 210) Projected Round – 1st-2nd.  The Redskins may have to decide between keeping either DeSean Jackson or Pierre Garcon at wide receiver this offseason.  If both don’t return the Redskins will need to add a receiver early in the draft.  Michael Thomas is not the deep threat that Jackson is but at 6’3, 210 he bring the kind of size to the table that the Redskins currently lack at the position.   LW # 19

15.  Kevin Dodd, DE – Clemson:  (6-5, 275) Projected Round – 1st.  Kevin Dodd isn’t the prototypical 3-4 defensive end but he has the kind of pass rushing ability that the Redskins would find it hard to ignore.  They need more playmakers on the defensive line and they could find a way to get him involved.  LW # 15
