I was just about to start a thread on this. while it's still in the rumored stages, I learned something about myself. Ole' Sty still has some leap in those old legs as I seriously bumped my head on the ceiling with a whoopee leap. :pound:

NOTES ON THE REDSKINS’ OVERALL DRAFT



· Dating back to 2011, the Redskins have now selected at least seven players in eight consecutive drafts for the first time since the league adopted the seven-round format in 1994.

· Including their 10 selections in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Redskins have now selected eight or more players in back-to-back drafts for only the third time since the NFL adopted the seven-round format in 1994, including instances in 2011-12, 2014-15 and 2017-18.

· The Redskins made two trades during the draft. On Day 2, the Redskins sent the Nos. 44 and 142 overall picks to the San Francisco 49ers for the Nos. 59 and 74 overall selections. On Day 3, the team traded the Nos. 205 and 231 picks to the Los Angeles Rams for the Nos. 197 and 256 selections.

· Of the Redskins’ eight selections, seven were made with picks acquired by trade, including draft-day trades with San Francisco (RB Derrius Guice and T Geron Christian) and the Los Angeles Rams (LB Shaun Dion Hamilton and WR Trey Quinn), an offseason trade with Denver (S Troy Apke and DL Tim Settle) and a 2017 preseason trade with the Rams (CB Greg Stroman).

· The Redskins’ seven selections with picks acquired by trades are the team’s most since 2011 (eight). The only player selected by Washington with one of the team’s original picks was DL Da’Ron Payne with the No. 13 overall selection.

· The Redskins have selected at least four players with picks acquired via trade in each of the last five drafts. It is the team’s longest such stretch since a five-draft span from 1985-89.

· The Redskins selected two pairs of college teammates in the same draft for the first time since 2012.

· The Redskins have now selected at least one pair of college teammates in six of the last eight drafts (Nebraska’s Roy Helu Jr., DeJon Gomes and Niles Paul in 2011; SMU’s Josh LeRibeus and Richard Crawford and Iowa’s Adam Gettis and Jordan Bernstine in 2012; Florida State’s Chris Thompson and Brandon Jenkins in 2013; Arkansas’ Martrell Spaight and Tevin Mitchel in 2015; Alabama’s Jonathan Allen and Ryan Anderson in 2017; Alabama’s Da’Ron Payne and Shaun Dion Hamilton and Virginia Tech’s Tim Settle and Greg Stroman in 2018).

· The 2018 NFL Draft marks the sixth time the Redskins have selected a pair of teammates out of Alabama (1941, 1948, 1951, 1962 and 2017).

· The 2018 NFL Draft marks the first time the Redskins have selected a pair of teammates out of Virginia Tech.

· The Redskins have now selected a pair of college teammates from the same school in back-to-back years for the first time since 1964-65, when the team selected a pair of teammates from Arizona State in both drafts. In those drafts, the Redskins selected Pro Football Hall of Fame HB/WR Charley Taylor and G John Seedborg from Arizona State in 1964, and then added legendary TE Jerry Smith and HB Dave Estrada from the same university in 1965.

· With four selections from the University of Alabama across the 2017-18 drafts, the Redskins selected at least four players from a single school in a two-year span for the first time since selecting T Mark Doak (No. 147 overall), DB Ardell Johnson (No. 277) and G Dennis Pavelka (No. 412) from Nebraska in 1975 and selecting Nebraska DE Dean Gissler (No. 308) in 1976.

· The Redskins made multiple picks in the seventh round for the third consecutive year, marking the team’s first three-year stretch with multiple seventh-round picks since selecting at least two players in that round in each of the 2010-12 NFL Drafts.

· The Redskins selected five defensive players and have now picked at least five defensive players in consecutive drafts for the first time since 1989-90, when the draft consisted of 12 rounds.

· The Redskins have now selected at least one defensive lineman in each of the last three drafts (Matt Ioannidis in 2016, Jonathan Allen in 2017 and Da’Ron Payne and Tim Settle in 2017). It marks the first time the team has taken a defensive lineman in three straight drafts since selecting one in each of the 2000-02 drafts, when all three selections were taken in sixth round or later (Del Cowsette in 2000, Mario Monds in 2001 and Greg Scott in 2002).

· The last time the Redskins took a defensive lineman in the fifth round or earlier in three consecutive drafts was from 1991-93 (Bobby Wilson in 1991, Shane Collins in 1992 and Sterling Palmer in 1993).

· All eight of the Redskins’ draft picks played their collegiate careers in the Football Bowl Subdivision, marking the sixth straight year the team’s entire draft class had played at the FBS level. The last Redskins draft pick to play in the Football Championship Subdivision was South Dakota’s Tom Compton (2012).

· Seven of the eight members of the Redskins’ draft class played at schools in “Power Five” conferences.

· The Redskins selected three players from the Southeastern Conference, three players from the Atlantic Coast Conference, and one player each from the Big Ten and American Athletic Conferences. The SEC leads all conferences with 14 of the Redskins’ 43 selections since 2014, followed by the ACC with 10 selections.

Doug gave insight into the draft war room. Sounds like he led the charge for Payne at 13.
