8.  Sheldon Rankins, DT – Louisville: (6-2, 304) Projected Round – 2nd. Sheldon Rankins is flying up the board after a great showing at the senior bowl.  He has to the talent to be a great addition to the Washington Redskins.  He can play multiple positions along the defensive and is explosive off the ball.  The Redskins will need strong young presence added to the D-line this offseason and Sheldon Rankins could be that man.  LW #9

7.  Laquon Treadwell, WR – Mississippi: (6-2, 210) Projected Round – Top 15. Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  The Redskins need to add size and talent at the wide receiver position.  They may have to release either DeSean Jackson or Pierre Garcon due to salary cap issues and they’ll need some one to step in.  Laquon Treadwell may be the best wide receiver in the 2016 NFL draft.  He would provide a quality target for Kirk Cousins.  LW #6
