Top 32 Redskins of 2016 – Vernon Davis

Age: 32

Measurables: 6-3, 248 pounds

2015 Ranking: NR

The Washington Redskins were decimated last season with injuries at the tight end position. In preseason, starter Niles Paul went down for the season with an ankle injury. Blocking tight end Logan Paulsen was also lost for the season with an injury.

And while Jordan Reed had a breakthrough season and played the most games of his career, the Redskins struggled to find depth behind him. So in 2016 the Skins made it a point to add more depth at the position and one way that did was sign Vernon Davis as a free agent.
