Washington could have invested more at cornerback or linebacker, and having no second-rounder (used to trade up for Montez Sweat last year) hurt. But overall, the Redskins filled several needs with value. Young was an easy pick, and Gibson and Gandy-Golden provide more weapons. Charles has character concerns but could replace Trent Williams, who netted Ismael and a 2021 third-rounder in a trade with San Francisco. Best pick

You could argue the Redskins should have considered Tua Tagovailoa or a trade package, but taking Young was a no-brainer. He's not quite as polished as former Buckeyes pass rushers Joey and Nick Bosa, but he's a better athlete and should terrorize QBs from Day 1. Upside pick

Gibson is one of the draft's most unique athletes, sporting the build of a running back with the speed (4.39 40-yard dash) of a wideout. He's a yards-after-catch maestro, scoring 14 touchdowns on 77 career touches (one every 5.5 touches), and can be used all over the field. --By David DeChant, Field Level Media
