Considered by some to be the 2nd best prospect after Myles Garrett, the Redskins got a tremendous steal here. Allen was projected as a top 5 pick throughout the entire NCAA season, where many believe Allen should have won the Heisman trophy. Allen was dominant at Alabama and will look to continue his effectivenss on one of the worst D lines in football. Allen has medical concerns with his shoulders that were unearthed at the NFL Combine, but the Redskins clearly felt comfortable with those medical evaluations. Allen should be one of the early favorite for DROY.

A 4th round talent with limited collegiate production. His teammate Tim Williams would have been a far superior pick here. Williams is considered by many to be the top pass rusher in this years class, even over Myles Garrett.

One of my absolute favorite players in this class, I expected Moreau to be a mid-late first round pick and I believe he would have been had it not been for his injury. Moreau boasts the #3 Athleticism score for all cornerbacks since 1999. He has the size that NFL teams covet, and ran a blazing fast 40 yard dash. The Redskins are having a terrific draft, and acquiring long-term cornerstones at important positions.

Perine is a mountain of a man with the athleticism of someone much smaller. Perine is impossible to bring down in the open field because of his huge frame and massive legs/butt. Perine holdes the record for most rushing yards in a game from his time at Oklahoma. Perine figures to become Washingtons bell cow back sooner rather than later.

Nicholson is one of my favorite sleeper Safety prospects. Nicholson had a terrific combine, which validated his pretty good tape. Nicholson will step in immediately as the #3 safety and provides excellent depth for every position in the secondary.
Talent Grade: 6
Vershel's Guy: Yes
Washington doesn't make the mistakes that the Rams and Bears made. Sprinkle is considered a sleeper tight end, on par with Adam Shaheen, Gerald Everett, and Jonnu Smith, yet his is selected 2 rounds later than those players. Sprinkle is an excellent #2/#3 tight end.
