2016 NFL Draft: Redskins Big Board 7.0

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.

32.  Jaylon Smith, LB – Notre Dame:(6-3, 240) Projected Round – 2nd.  Jaylon Smith stock has dropped as it seems he may not be able to play in 2016.  He suffered a devastating knee injury late last season.  It was discovered at the NFL Combine that they injury may be worse than originally thought  Smith may need time to recover.  However, when healthy he’s arguably the best linebacker in the 2016 NFL Draft.  The Redskins could use a player like Jaylon Smith and he has the ability to play inside or outside linebacker.     LW #

31.  Kendall Fuller, CB – Virginia Tech:  (6-2, 200) 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 #
