LANDOVER, Md. (AP) Super Bowl-winning defensive end Fred Stokes remembers what he heard from other players in 1989 when he left the Los Angeles Rams as a free agent to join the NFL team based in the nation’s capital. “When I got here,” Stokes said, “the guys all told me, ‘We’re all about winning.’ Washington and winning went together.”
In 1991, the Redskins went 14-2, sported a top-rated offense and defense and were so dominant that they never trailed in a playoff game. The Burgundy and Gold outscored teams by a total of 261 points, the NFL's third-highest point differential in the Super Bowl era (1966).

Historically, 53 percent of first-round picks from each year end up being busts.
Meanwhile, every year, there are also certain players I fall in love with when evaluating. Typically these are guys who play the game the way it was meant to be played. They play with heart, and they play to win.
It is a little past Valentine s Day, but nonetheless, I have a list of five players that I really like in this year s draft class, which I m going to label as my top five draft crushes.
These are five players who I believe will star in the National Football League.
