The Redskins have been great at finding value in the middle rounds of the NFL draft over the past few years, but which round is their best?

No. 3 — Second Round

Ranking the final three rounds was very difficult, as the Redskins have been able to find great value in each of them over the past five years. In the end, the fact that Washington has only had four second-round picks in that time causes it to fall to third in our rankings, though it gave second place a run for its money. We’ve all seen what Derrius Guice can do when he’s healthy, and Ryan Anderson sprung onto the scene in 2019 as well, earning a bigger role for himself in the future. Before he left in free agency, Preston Smith was also a great player on the front line for the Redskins, earning him a nice pay-day with the Green Bay Packers. The lone outlier here is Su’a Cravens, who had a load of issues with Washington before his surprise retirement announcement a week before the season. That’s hard to knock the team for, though, as he seemed to have quite a bit of talent had he not been a head case.
