Round 4, Pick 18 – DE/LB Harold Landry, Boston College

The Redskins could use some depth at the edge rusher position. While they have a trio of talented options at the position, they simply lack depth there. If they are looking to add some in the fourth round, Harold Landry could end up being an option they explore.

    • No player has done more in recent weeks to improve their draft stock than Landry. The Boston College product has put together a terrific junior season, totaling a whopping 15 sacks in 11 games. Over the past couple of seasons, he has posted 36.5 tackles for loss, but he really improved his production as a pass rusher in the past weeks.

    If Landry enters the draft, he seems likely to be a third or fourth round pick. He has excellent size at 6-foot-3, and he has a nice 250 pound frame. He looks to be a great fit as a 3-4 edge rusher, and he could play a key role for the Redskins. Trent Murphy has emerged this season as a solid option, but Preston Smith has regressed. Landry gives them extra upside, and that would be a huge asset.

    Of all the picks thus far, this would be the one with the biggest boom-or-bust potential. Landry could turn into a terrific player and possible starter. He also could be just a mediocre backup at best. Still, he is worth the risk at this point thanks to his pass rushing upside.
