Round 6

Pick No. 206 – Oregon WR Dillon Mitchell

Even after picking Ohio State wide receiver Terry McLaurin in Round 3, the Redskins could stand to double-dip at the position, especially in a very strong receiving class. At this pick, in this mock, they take Oregon wide receiver Dillon Mitchell. One of my favorite sleepers at wideout, Mitchell offers 6-foot-2 size to go with impressive athletic fluidity and improving nuance with his routes. Combine those factors with his run-after-catch ability and versatility, and Mitchell would be a home run pick here, completing a once-bare receiving core.
