Phillip Merling
Defensive End Clemson |

| ANALYSIS: The Washington have a need and both Defensive End and Wide Reciever, and and with the best WR in this draft gone they go with DE. The redskins have an almost non-existent pass rush, and this pick will almost immediately upgrade them at a position that they need desperately. Merling is a bit of a gamble seeing as he just had a hernia sugery, however, he is a value pick at 21. Merling improved every season at clemson and being 6ft. 5in. tall and 275lbs he should be good against the run. | ||||||

as we saw in the playoffs this year, a good pass rush can win the game.
