Washington Football Team: Comparing our mock draft to the actual picks
Rounds 5-6
Round 5
Mock Prediction: Sadarius Hutcherson, Offensive Guard, South Carolina
Draft Selection: Darrick Forrest, Safety, Cincinnati
For the second straight round, we have a horrible prediction that was far short of what was mocked. Mocking a guard seemed like a logical choice for the future and adding talented linemen on either side of the ball is always a good strategy. The Washington Football Team selected a player that fills another team need – free safety. Darrick Forrest is a solid prospect.
Grade: F
Round 6
Mock Prediction: None
Draft Selection: Camaron Cheeseman, Long Snapper, Michigan
The mock draft did not include a trade and the selection was part of a deal that added this draft pick. Is that a miss? How should it be graded? The Washington Football Team entered the draft with no sixth round pick, but that changed when the trade produced sixth and seventh-round picks. We talked about the need for a long snapper, but never mocked one. Camaron Cheeseman was the choice. Instead of being harsh, let’s handle it this way.
Grade: Incomplete
