The Washington Redskins picked 22-year old WR Leonard Hankerson out of Miami (FL) with the 79th overall pick (3rd round) of the 2011 NFL Draft.  Hankerson is 6’1″, 205 pounds and he runs a 4.5 40.  Hankerson is not a speed burned but he makes a lot of eye popping catches.  He played in 13 games (11 starts) for Miami (FL) last year and he caught 72 passes for 1,156 yards (16.1 avg) with 13 TD grabs.  Hankerson played in 41 games (27 starts) in his four years with the Hurricanes and he caught 134 passes for 2,160 yards (16.1 avg) with 22 TD grabs.  This was another good pick for the Redskins, as Hankerson will fill a need for them.

The Washington Redskins picked 23-year old DT Jarvis Jenkins out of USC with the 41st overall pick (2nd round) of the 2011 NFL Draft.  Jenkins fills a huge need for the Redskins on the interior of the D-Line.  He is 6’3″, 309 pounds, so he has the size required to man the middle of the D.  The Redskins need to work with Jenkins on staying low as that seems to be one of his only problems as a player.  Jenkins played in 12 games (all starts) for USC last year and he had 39 tackles, 8 tackles for a loss, 1 sack, 1 batted down ball and he forced 1 fumble.  He played in 48 games (37 starts) in his four years with the Trojans and he had 152 tackles, 30 tackles for a loss, 5 sacks, 1 batted down ball and he forced 1 fumble.  This was a good pick for the Redskins who really needed help on the interior of the D.
