Per a source, DRC would be joining the Redskins to most likely play Free Safety.

DRC retired midway through last season, of course. Am told he just wanted to get back on the field and is ready to work. Liked the idea of returning to the NFC East after stops with the Eagles, Giants.

Redskins add veteran CB depth after using so many kids last season.

Dolphins traded QB Ryan Tannehill to the Titans.

— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) March 15, 2019

Dolphins are going to draft a QB. They should sign Fitzpatrick, who will be good for five or six games, then turn to the better-prepped rookie.

— Mike Jones (@ByMikeJones) March 15, 2019

Mariota and Tannehill have same build and similar skill sets. Mariota is a little more aggressive as a runner.

Mariota career stats (56 games)
63.2% 69 TD 42 INT (11 rush TD)

Tannehill career stats (88 games)
62.8% 123 TD 75 INT (6 rush TD)

1) FA is ongoing. It's not a 2 day period. 2) Not really because never thought they'd pay a lot for LG, not with Scherff coming up and good $$ at LT/RT. Not a lot of great options and a lot of teams need. still think could sign someone, but: Draft! good for interior, unlike '18 https://t.co/3PRBGxqNBY

— John Keim (@john_keim) March 15, 2019

Some Redskins thoughts after a day in Ashburn:

*Salary cap space hardly only reason Zach Brown released.

* Don't go buying an AJ Green Redskins jersey yet.
