No. 9 — RB Kenyan Drake
Like Amari Cooper, Kenyan Drake would be arguably the most exciting player that Washington could look to sign in free agency this year, but there are undoubtedly bigger needs to fill. Still, it was reported on Thursday that the Redskins would be interested in Drake should the Arizona Cardinals let him hit the open market, and imagining a backfield with him, Adrian Peterson, and Derrius Guice is awfully intriguing. Thow a healthy Bryce Love into the mix, and it’s hard not to salivate.
Drake could come on a semi-friendly deal as well, with most projections having him sign a short deal worth $8-9 million. For a dynamic offensive threat who can work in both the rushing and passing game, that’s hard to pass up.
