Unsolved mysteries

Several teams still have issues to address after the draft

As NFL draft weekend comes to an end, there are still a couple of open questions that need to be answered:

1. Washington still has work to do up front. Yes, the Redskins did a lot of good things in free agency to turn their linebacker group into one of the finest in the NFL (adding Jeremiah Trotter and Jessie Armstead to a mix that already had LaVar Arrington).

They did a good job during the draft of trading down in the first round, picking up Tulane quarterback Patrick Ramsey and some extra choices. But the defensive line needs help. Bruce Smith and Marco Coleman are getting a bit long in the tooth, and Kenard Lang has moved on to Cleveland.

2. Cincinnati's quarterback situation is still unsettled. The Bengals would have loved a shot at selecting Joey Harrington but it never materialized.

They didn't trade for Drew Bledsoe and they didn't draft a quarterback. Their only hope now is to pick up a veteran like Gus Frerotte or Shane Matthews, but neither will really change the offense.
