The Washington Redskins made two selections for depth in the fifth round of the NFL draft Saturday — taking San Diego State center Keith Ismael with the 156th pick to boost their interior offensive line and Michigan linebacker Khaleke Hudson with the 162 pick.
Ismael, with his 6-foot-3, 309-pound frame, played multiple spots up front during his time with San Diego State. While he started 13 games last year at center, Ismael also played right and left guard in 2018.
The Redskins didn’t have a glaring need at center, but offensive line depth has been an issue for them in the past.
