30.  Tyler Boyd, WR – Pittsburgh:  (6-2, 200) Projected Round – 2nd.  Wide receiver will be one of the positions that the Redskins will need to address in the 2016 NFL Draft.  They’ll  need size and perhaps more speed depending on which veteran receiver is no longer with the team in 2016.  Tyler Boyd has the ability to help in both areas and is one of the most acrobatic receivers in the draft.     LW # 29

29.  Vonn Bell, SS – Ohio State: (5-11, 199) Projected Round – 2nd.  The Redskins recently released two safeties in Dashon Goldson and Jeron Johnson.  They signed free agent David Bruton but they still need to add some depth at the position.  Vonn Bell is a very versatile safety.  He could play either strong or free safety,  He also has the skills to cover the slot receiver.  Bell is also good at creating turnovers,  A trait the Redskins defense could use a lot more of.    LW #30

ALSO ON RIGGO’S RAG: Redskins have signed safety David Bruton
