28.  William Jackson, CB – Houston:  (6-0, 199) Projected Round – 1st-2nd.  The Washington Redskins lack depth at cornerback.  They will certainly have to draft one in order to replenish their depth at the position.  William Jackson is steadily climbing up the draft board.  He has good size and excellent speed.  The Redskins could use his talent in their secondary.     LW # 28

27.  Austin Johnson, DT – Penn State: (6-4, 323) Projected Round – 2nd. The Redskins run defense is in need of an upgrade.  One of the best way to help improve against the run is to add more talent to the defensive line and Austin Johnson has the size and talent help give the Redskins another option at nose tackle and defensive end.  LW # 27
