3 potential late-round gems for the Redskins to target

The Washington Redskins have five picks on Day 3 of the 2019 NFL Draft. They may be able to land some gems with their picks, and here are a few late-round guys they could target.

The 2019 NFL Draft is almost here. While many are focused on the early rounds of the draft, as a higher concentration of talented players will come off the board in the first two days, quality NFL teams are able to build in the later rounds of the draft. And that’s something that the Washington Redskins will have to do.

The Redskins have a few glaring holes on their roster, but even more pressing is the depth they need across the board. In the past couple of seasons, the team has been ravaged by injuries and this offseason, they lost some of their notable depth players. They will find a way to replace them, but the best way to do it will be to load up on quality upside players on Day 3 of the draft.

The players that the team could land late aren’t necessarily going to be inspiring. But, they have the skills needed to be quality depth and could eventually develop into starters. Here are a few options that the ‘Skins could target with their five picks in Round 5 or later.
