2.  A’Shawn Robinson, DT – Alabama:  (6-3, 312) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  A’Shawn Robinson is arguably the top defensive tackle in the 2016 NFL draft.  He’s a load inside and has the athleticism to go with it.  This makes him a perfect fit for the Redskins 3-4 defense. Robinson will more than likely not be on the board when the Redskins pick but strange things can happen sometimes in the draft and you never know but if Robinson slides down the board the Redskins would be smart to scoop him up.  LW #1

1.  Vernon Hargreaves III, CB – Florida:  (5-11, 199) Projected Round – Top 15.  Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Slim.  Redskins general manager tends to lean to bigger cornerbacks but if Vernon Hargreaves is on the board when the Redskins pick I think McCloughan might make an exception.  Hargreaves is a playmaker on defense and has the kind of cover skills that make a difference regardless of size.  LW # 2
