2020 NFL Draft: Complete grades for every team

Luke Easterling breaks down the 2020 NFL Draft, giving out early grades for all 32 teams

Washington Redskins

It’s hard to get a bad grade when you start the draft by getting the best overall player in the class anywhere after the No. 1 overall pick. That’s what Washington did with Ohio State defensive end Chase Young at No. 2 overall, and it set the tone for a solid weekend.

Without a second-round pick due to last years’ trade-up for Montez Sweat, the Redskins had to wait until the third round, but they still landed a dynamic playmaker. Memphis do-it-all offensive weapon Antonio Gibson is a big-play machine, and could be used much like we saw Deebo Samuel in San Francisco last year.

LSU tackle Saahdiq Charles has potential if he can avoid off-field troubles, and Day 3 brought great value, with the likes of Liberty wide receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden in the fourth round and Michigan safety/linebacker hybrid Khaleke Hudson in the fifth. A solid start to the Ron Rivera era in Washington.

GRADE: B+
