Greetings to the loyal readers of BBQ. In this first installment of the in-season special edition of BBQ, we will take a look at possible draft choices for 2013 as it relates to team needs and depth. The second installment will come after the eighth game and additional posts will come after weeks ten, twelve, fourteen, and sixteen. The latter installments will also take a look at possible free agent targets (including players from all NFL teams). We will focus primarily on team needs and draft/free agent history (the Shanahan regime in Washington) as a guide.
The Redskins have these picks for 2013 in the NFL draft: Round 2, Round 3, Round 4, Round 5, Round 5 (from New England), Round 6, Round 7, Round 7 (from Detroit). Areas of focus for the Redskins in 2013 could center on defensive secondary, offensive line, wide receiver, and running back. Too, the Redskins do not have a first round pick, so the highly ranked blue chippers will not be available. With that in mind, let’s take a look at possible prospects for the 2013 draft.
