Entering free agency, the Washington Redskins had many holes to fill and many questions that needed to be answered. Ron Rivera and Kyle Smith answered some of those questions, but there are still several that must be addressed before this year’s NFL Draft.

Heading into the offseason, The Washington Redskins were coming off a frustrating three-win season and needed to find a new head coach. This was only one of the many problems the Redskins needed to address to fix the team.

In comes Ron Rivera to take over the job as the head coach in Washington. Rivera took the position knowing he would need to rebuild the team in his own image, from the coaching staff to the players on the roster. Rivera and Kyle Smith started fast in free agency, and brought in multiple players such as Kendall Fuller and Thomas Davis, who they believed would help this team move in the right direction.

While this approach may work out in their favor, with the draft closing in fast, the Redskins still have a couple of questions to ask themselves. Here are the top three questions they must answer before the draft begins in late April.
