Rounds 3-4

Round 3

  • Nico Collins, Wide Receiver, Michigan.  Collins would be a good fit with Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel.
  • Pete Werner, Linebacker, Ohio St.  If a linebacker is not chosen in the first two rounds, Werner could be a target of the Washington Football Team.
  • Jackson Carman, Offensive Tackle, Clemson.  Listing him as a third-rounder seems odd, but Washington could score a steal if they draft Carman in this round.
  • Andre Cisco, Free Safety, Syracuse.  Yes, we listed him as a potential bust.  However, if he can overcome injuries, Cisco could be the best free safety in the 2021 draft.
  • Tommy Tremble, Tight End, Notre Dame.  Another prospect that we listed as a potential bust, but Tremble could be a huge steal if he improves as a receiver.
  • Kenneth Gainwell, Running Back, Memphis.  Is Antonio Gibson’s former teammate a target in this round?  Gibson is probably lobbying for his friend.  And Gainwell is a beast.

Ken’s Korner:  Any one of these players could be in a Washington Football Team uniform very soon.

Round 4

  • Davis Mills, Quarterback, Stanford.  Sure, we listed him as a bust.  He has plenty of potential and the Burgundy and Gold could be looking for a long-term quarterback prospect in this round.
  • Ben Cleveland, Guard, Georgia.  Cleveland is big and strong.  He could start much sooner than many may expect.
  • Dylan Moses, Linebacker, Alabama.  Moses is rated as a fourth-rounder by many analysts and that seems like a crime.  Washington might take a flyer on him if he lasts this long.
  • Austin Watkins, Wide Receiver, Alabama-Birmingham.  If the draft wasn’t so incredibly deep with wide receiver talent, Watkins would be a second-round prospect.
  • Trey Smith, Offensive Guard, Tennessee.  Smith has fallen out of favor with some analysts, but he could be a solid interior lineman in this league for a decade or more.
  • Deonte Brown, Offensive Guard, Alabama.  He could start from day one and have an All-Pro career.

Ken’s Korner:  There could be a lot of good value to be found in Round 4.
