Round 7, Pick 2

Will Pick: OL Cameron Clark, Charlotte

Doubling up on offensive line help? Sure. Why not? It’s a deep tackle class and Clark played tackle well at Charlotte. He didn’t allow a sack as a senior and could be a nice developmental project.

Clark is a powerful blocker and his strength shows up on tape. He played well against Clemson last year and held his own against NFL talent. That said, Clark may have to move inside at the next level as he isn’t a great athlete and struggled to move his feet quick enough to stay with faster edge rushers. But in the seventh round, he’s well worth a developmental choice and could emerge as a versatile backup.

Should Pick: S Kenny Robinson, St. Louis Battlehawks (XFL)

This would be the Redskins’ only chance to take someone from the now-defunct spring football league. Robinson grabbed a couple of picks for the St. Louis Battlehawks and had seven over the course of two seasons at West Virginia. He’s a good ballhawk who is young and has developmental upside. And that’s what teams are looking for at this point in the draft.

Dark Horse: CB Parnell Motley, Oklahoma

Motley doesn’t get enough credit for his solid play at Oklahoma. He had 48 tackles, an interception, and 13 pass defenses last year for the Sooners. He could be a solid backup and special teams player and his gritty style could eventually earn him some playing time on defense.
