The NFL supplemental draft is set to occur tomorrow, and the Washington Redskins will have the chance to add to their defensive backfield. If they use a pick in this draft, however, they will lose a corresponding pick in next year’s NFL Draft.
There is very sound reasoning to pick a player from the draft. They have 11 picks next year, more than enough to use a selection here. And of all the position groups on the Redskins roster, one could argue that the secondary is the weakest position group. This doesn’t mean the group is weak, however.
