Washington Redskins general manager Scot McCloughan had said all along that they were going to draft “the best player available” at No. 5 overall in the 2015 NFL Draft. Most draft experts predicted that would mean that edge rusher Dante Fowler or defensive lineman Leonard Williams finding themselves in burgundy and gold. After the Jacksonville Jaguars took Fowler at No. 3, everyone expected that meant Williams would be a Redskin. McCloughan insists that the Redskins stuck to their guns and took the best player available; it’s just that it might not have been the player we expected.
