ALSO ON RIGGO’S RAG: 5 First Round propsects the Redskins must target in the draft

6.  Mackensie Alexander, CB – Clemson:  (5-10, 195) Projected Round – Top 25.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Good.  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 # 3

5.  Jarran Reed, NT – Alabama: (6-3, 312) Projected Round – Top 25.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Good.  The Redskins had Terrance Knighton at nose tackle in 2015 and he did a sold job.  However, he’s a free agent this offseason and he won’t be back in 2016.  Jarran Reed is one of the top nose tackle prospects in the 2016 NFL draft and he could help the Redskins defensive line immediately.  LW # 7
