The Daily Twitter: 2 August 2019

Now that he’s on my team and none of my leaguemates can snipe me...for the love of god PLEASE draft Terry McLaurin in all of your dynasty leagues folks.

I’d bet that kid is their WR1 by Thanksgiving. Legit 4.3 speed, great route runner, pillow soft hands. He’s got it all.

Also new in this story: Trent isn’t ready to play right now. He’s close and getting closer every day, but if he was in Richmond he’d probably be on PUP anyway. His off-season was wrecked by multiple surgeries that limited his ability to workout. https://t.co/3MEHgOAutf

Gruden asked about Guice/Peterson says: "You can't discard Samaje. He's been outstanding." Has hit this theme all offseason.

Terry McLaurin says the #Redskins QBs like his body language at WR. I asked him what that means. His answer was very insightful, as are all of his answers pic.twitter.com/m7TeSXPyE1

Roster Moves: #Redskins have signed LB Garrett Sickels and waived Elijah Wellman.

Hall very clearly said he asked Trent Williams what the "end game" was and said he doesn't think Williams would mind him telling what was said. "Get that training staff out or I'm not coming back. https://t.co/MffadMXBdF

— Paul Conner (@P_ConnerJr) August 1, 2019

Here's Jerry: "Barring a kind of miracle the Redskins never pull off, Williams is gone. It feels like it happened quickly, but it was gradual. And what’s worse, there’s a chance it could have been avoided with just a little preemptive adult conversation."

— Dan Steinberg (@dcsportsbog) August 1, 2019

#Redskins assumingly balked at the idea of one player dictating a whole department of their team. Top player or not, that shows too much power and gives more room for power plays.

Jay Gruden to the podium on Day 6:

Says he likes the competition, but there are zero positives to extracurricular fighting.

When things got out of hand yesterday, he just had to break it up.

Also talked to @ChrisThompson_4 about how good @DhaSickest can be. CT said Guice can be a “1,200-1,500-yard guy.”

“The way he runs the ball, guys over time will be scared to hit him -- like they are w/ AP. Like they are w/ Zeke...He’s a guy that’s going to be on that level.”

Belichick on his left tackle situation: "We have a lot of things that we need to work on..." Says he doesn't feel good about it. Doesn't feel good about anything right now. Doesn't necessarily feel bad about it, either.

Stunning plot twist: Former #Panthers C Ryan Kalil will come out of his brief retirement to join... the #Jets, sources say. He’s agreed to terms, pending physical. A huge veteran influence to join QB Sam Darnold at a position of need.

This is part of the value of Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. He spoke with Rookie WR Kelvin Harmon about how to beat a certain press coverage. They spoke then they repped one. DRC does this with young players on both sides of the ball. pic.twitter.com/hTTi0GbNX1

Again, this leans towards warrior mindset. Wanted to know if he could play through it. Team thought it was a cyst so they said he could. You can play with a cyst. Turns out it was more. Kevin said 2nd doctors told him to get his "affairs in order." Scary. Ended up benign. https://t.co/t2WjddIXFw
