Position: Cornerback
Projected Round – Top 15, first round
Likelihood on the Board when Redskins Pick – Possible
Why the Redskins need him
Redskins cornerback Chris Culliver might not be on the team in 2016, so the need for a cornerback becomes even greater. Typically, Washington Redskins GM Scot McCloughan likes to find his defensive backs in the middle to late rounds. However, he might make an exception for Mackensie Alexander.
He may be the best cover corner in NFL Draft 2016. Alexander has the talent and confidence that could make an immediate impact on a defense.
