Finding a tackle could be difficult 2009-02-13
If they deem offensive tackle a priority, an early look at this year's NFL Draft would seem to put the Washington Redskins in an advantageous position.


A year after eight tackles went in the first round, as many as five could earn opening-round grades during the evaluation process, which heats up during next week's scouting combine in Indianapolis.

  • Overall, Mayock's prediction for the top three selections are quarterback Matthew Stafford to Detroit, Baylor's Smith to Detroit and Wake Forest outside linebacker Aaron Curry to Kansas City.

    Mayock said the top two quarterbacks - Georgia's Stafford and Southern Cal's Mark Sanchez - are tougher to evaluate because of their inexperience.

    "It's easier for me to evaluate offensive linemen, and that's not a coincidence because most of them are fifth-year seniors - they have a history on and off the field," Mayock said. "Last year, Matt Ryan and Joe Flacco were easy to evaluate because of their experience. Now we're talking about a third-year guy [in Stafford] and a guy with 16 starts [in Sanchez]."
