Feels good to be employed #HTTR

Redskins OLBs went from:

Starters: Kerrigan and Anderson
Depth: Casanova McKinzey

to

Starters: Kerrigan and Sweat
Depth: Anderson, McKinzey, and Brailford.

That’s a huge upgrade.

He doesn't look like a 7th round prospect to me. Looks like he could be a gem.

Good thread here on #Redskins 7th round CB Jimmy Moreland https://t.co/50Geryg2aK

"You're talking about an all-around player."

More on #Redskins third-round WR @TheTerry_25, who can do just about everything.

One of my favorite late round guys is James Madison CB Jimmy Moreland. He's a ballhawk with outstanding play speed. He's undersized but I could see him moving to safety and getting his hands on a bunch of footballs. He reminds me of @Damontaekazee coming out of college.

Today on @TheAthleticDC - I took a closer look at why the #Redskins spent a 4th round pick to add Stanford RB Bryce Love to an already crowded backfield https://t.co/HJE8zVE9oR pic.twitter.com/kOiLxRgW6i

Soooooo.......about that Joe Theismann / Dwayne Haskins relationship getting off to a good start..... #Redskins pic.twitter.com/hLAFuMA0pW

— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) May 1, 2019

Blunt will be interesting. Skins like that he's a former safety who likes to hit. Could develop into special teams guy with those traits. But keep in mind: Some guys you hear good things about now end up being cut later. So... patience. https://t.co/oNi6YyT7yS

Trent Dilfer: “The #Redskins are doing backflips that they got Dwayne Haskins. (Redskins OC) Kevin O’Connell was my Elite 11 Coach and coached Dwayne Haskins when he was at the Elite 11. He has a rich history with Dwayne Haskins.”

This take on Dwayne Haskins is Powerful pic.twitter.com/lpkH6cYwbA

— Redskins Realm (@SkinsRealm) May 1, 2019

Let him sit and grow without any pressure this year. Then go get him more weapons, specifically one of these top WR’s. Next year’s class is supposed to be extremely good.

— Robbie Duncan (@RobbieDuncanOL) April 30, 2019

Keep an eye on McIntosh. Considered a top 300 player in this class. Redskins didn't address safety in this draft. https://t.co/5lyD7yZ23s

Let’s look at their final years at Mississippi St.:

Smith:
-87.2 overall grade, 82.7 run defense grade, 82.6 pass rush grade, 42 total pressures

Sweat:
-87.2 overall grade, 84.7 run defense grade, 84.9 pass rush grade, 48 total pressures

Those are remarkably similar. https://t.co/UcfVkMCUA6

— PFF WAS Redskins (@PFF_Redskins) April 30, 2019

In 2018 here’s how the two stacked up

Swearinger:
-79.8 overall grade, 65.9 run defense grade, 79.5 coverage grade, 318 snaps in the box vs 388 snaps as FS

Collins:
-70.4 overall grade, 68.4 run defense, 68.2 coverage grade, 478 snaps in the box, 109 snaps at FS https://t.co/lUFItOgbwK

I think Kelvin Harmon is going to surprise folks. He looks like a pro here. https://t.co/mr4s1LmifL

— Sean Kennedy (@EatSleepRedskin) April 30, 2019

Good thing Haskins has a 6:1 career TD:INT ratio and a turnover percentage of only 1.5%

For reference, Aaron Rodgers is the NFL's all-time leader in INT % at... 1.5% (not saying Haskins = Rodgers at all, just providing a point of comparison) https://t.co/32nVifukmm

— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) April 30, 2019

Montez Sweat (87.2) T-11/174
Dwayne Haskins (85.0) 10/50
Kelvin Harmon (83.5) 13/167
Jordan Brailford (76.5) T-41/174
Wes Martin (76.4) 10/141

Bryce Love (74.8) 45/99

Of the DBs on the current roster here are the ones who have snaps at FS in their NFL career:

-Rodgers-Cromartie (61)
-Landon Collins (1,479)
-Deshazor Everett (384)
-Montae Nicholson (567) https://t.co/m5Fr8VuQcA

Will be curious to see Jimmy Moreland this summer. I think there's some excitement about him; they like his competitiveness. moreland said he picked off 18 passes because he's a "dog." I think Skins would agree. legit shot to make roster and eventually help.

— John Keim (@john_keim) April 29, 2019

Dan Snyder bought the team because he was a huge #Redskins fan. Dont know if he’d piss of a legend by handing out his number without his blessing.

Bruce Allen is on @FirstTake says it’s “not true Daniel Jones was ever their top QB, Haskins was always our top guy”

Bruce Allen has been mostly invisible while the #Redskins were going through adversity and as soon as they get praised for a good draft, he shows up on National TV. Entertaining.

Jamaal Charles was one of a kind.

In the five full seasons with Kansas City that he qualified for a grade among RBs, here's where he ranked:

2009 - 80.0 (1st)
2010 - 86.3 (3rd)
2012 - 77.5 (13th)
2013 - 83.7 (5th)
2014 - 72.1 (13th) https://t.co/0VhbSaWefr

If the Giants finish with the first pick in the 2020 Draft, do you think they would select a QB?

— Football Perspective (@fbgchase) April 30, 2019

As of today, there are 5 teams with less than $5 million in cap space. Those 5 will likely have to make room to sign rookies. They are ...

• Vikings, $1.683M
• Bucs, $1.778M
• Steelers, $3.361M
• Falcons, $3.923M
• Rams, $4.651M

Every other team has $8M or more in space.

This is so hack. You post a terrible hot take that was cooked up with cherry-picked "facts" and then you actually blame those who call you out on it.

Evan Silva went from one of the best bloggers to just another hack trolling Cleveland solely for the clicks. You hate to see it. https://t.co/Myb7CVJ1iS
