| THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION!!! I think London Fletceher retires this year before training camp! He was great for us last year and he will be greatly missed, but he has lost a step. I say that with all the respect in the world. He led the league in missed tackels and struggled guarding backs and tight ends. I think he realizes that hes not the player he used to be, and thats why he wont commit to playing next year. ILB is going to be a much bigger need for us than first anticipated. |

I have the opposite gut feeling...but if he hangs it up, I like some of the possible FA ILBs. Love Ellerbe from Balt. _________________

That's very true. Hopefully the resign Reed to a stupid contract and Flacco is getting insane money regardless. Maybe they can't afford Ellerbe, a guy can dream, right? _________________

It's why I hope M. Teo is on the board @#51.
I don't care if he has a blow-up doll in his foot locker, or is a Ventriloquist on the side.
He would be the perfect pick @#51, to replace Fletcher or to be mentored for 1 season by Fletcher.
But a top 10 talent dropping that far, is asking a lot.
But our ridiculous political correctness as a society and their hangup on social media, might be enough juice to help it happen.
I can hope...
Yes, MLB Monte Teo' is my #1 Redskin prospect
OT Kyle Long is my #2 _________________

OT Kyle Long is my #2 | I would hope we wouldn't take Teo. He's a smart thumper who excels in stuffing the run but can struggle in coverage. We already have a player like that, Perry Riley. We need a more athletic MLB who can cover the TE's in the league. Keenan Robinson might be that player. I do like Kyle Long and hope we consider him. |

It's Manti, ace. Not Monte. Pronounced Man-tie. If he fell to our 2nd round pick, I would consider him, but our secondary needs are our primary needs (holy mind blow), which means our LB needs are our secondary needs.  _________________ RIP SuperSkinFan

Apparently the staff loves Keenan Robinson and he will be given first shot to replace London.... _________________

If Fletcher is gone Alexander will take over his position and I see is drafting an IlB again, then we will re-sign Kehl to Compete for a spot and possibly go after a FA ILB like Larry Grant from the 49ers.
Oh and Teo being available for us at 53 is laughable _________________
