6.  Laquon Treadwell, WR – Mississippi: (6-2, 210) Projected Round – Top 15. Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – possible.  The Redskins need to add size and talent at the wide receiver position.  DeSean Jackson or Pierre Garcon will be back in 2016 but what about beyond that?  The Redskins need to look to the future and more talent at the position now.  Laquon Treadwell doesn’t have great speed but he still may be the best wide receiver in the 2016 NFL draft.  He would provide a quality target for Kirk Cousins.  LW #7

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 solid job.  However, he’s a free agent this offseason and even if the Redskins re-sign him he might not get a long-term deal.  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 # 5
