Redskins 2020 Mock Offseason - Trades, Trades and More Trades

The only meaningful football game we have left in the 2019 season is the Super Bowl in two weeks. Redskins faithful have been thinking/debating/arguing about the 2020 NFL offseason for months now. The intensity heated up when we secured the number two overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, and got even hotter when the season ended and Bruce Allen was fired, Ron Rivera hired and Kyle Smith promoted.

The fun now centers around who will win the Super Bowl, followed by what will the Redskins do this offseason to improve their team.

Some recent news on Reuben Foster’s rehabilitation progress cast a gray cloud over the linebacker’s future for the 2020 season, as he recovers from a torn knee, which also included significant nerve damage. This could impact the Redskins’ offseason plans a bit.

Below is my 2020 offseason plan, including notable cuts, trades, free agent signings and a 2020 mock draft. I followed that up with a potential 2020 two-deep depth chart just for fun.
