While watching the second and third rounds of the 2015 NFL Draft on Friday, we saw the Washington Redskins draft Preston Smith, OLB and Matt Jones, RB. I admit to being very surprised at both. I thought of Smith as a much better fit as a 4-3 DE rather than 3-4 OLB so I dropped him lower on my Redskins Draft Board.
Jones was not expected to be drafted until the fifth or sixth round as a RB out of Florida. I hadn’t watched a single game of his until he was drafted by the Redskins.
