How would you grade Ron Rivera’s first draft in Washington?
I was very impressed with how Rivera handled his first major event as the head coach of the Redskins. He and Kyle Smith obviously had a plan for Washington going into the draft, and the wanted to take the best player available to them to help boost their roster, rather than handcuffing themselves by being concerned with areas of need. Rivera knows that the Redskins likely won’t be a 10-win team in 2020, so he is laying a solid foundation of hard work and skill while he has the flexibility.
By watching Rivera complete his objective in the draft, I have a lot of confidence that he is the right man to turn the ship around in Washington and get this thing going in the right direction. He has proved it well enough over the past three days.
