Washington and Miami made some contractual moves to complete the deal for Ereck Flowers. The Dolphins will pay $6 million in a signing bonus. Washington handles the $3 million base salary, source confirms. @adamschefter first.

WFT had $14.97 mil in effective cap space pre trade.
Nothing like picking up a player who succeeded for you in the past and having his most recent team pay two-thirds of his 2021 salary https://t.co/PAVe6Vi0Hn

Washington drops down 14 spots in the 7th round and gets Miami to pick up 6m of the 9m salary. Pretty good trade for Washington https://t.co/Xp0vLrLBod

I really like #WashingtonFootball trading for Ereck Flowers and adding an upgrade at left guard for just $3M against this year's cap. Smart move.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) April 27, 2021
This speaks to why I didn't understand tagging Scherff as an expensive one-year rental. Quality guards can be found. Nice trade!
The Panthers were really high on Flowers ahead of the 2015 draft. As @jjones9 reported at the time, the Panthers liked him enough to send OL coach John Matsko (now the WFT's OL coach) to have dinner with Flowers and work him out.

They obviously liked Flowers, he chose extra money, now he’s back. Good fit. Familiar face. Competition at LG. Future RG replacement if he performs?
— Steve (@StevieWFT) April 27, 2021
Flowers was one of the first guys in the end zone to celebrate when Washington scored. That never went unnoticed in 2019.
If Washington goes tackle at No. 19, it’s likely that 7 of its 9 starters on the OL and DL would be first-round picks.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) April 27, 2021
For those suggesting that trading for Flowers is a precursor for #WFT trading Scherff - I would love for that to be the case & for the team to get back proper value for him. Don't have a ton of confidence that that is the case. But we shall see.

While on with @Russellmania621 and @PeteMedhurst, Taylor Heinicke relayed that Ryan Fitzpatrick was "pumped up" to hear that Ereck Flowers will be joining him in DC for 2021 (that is so many names in one sentence, sorry). Flowers and Fitz were on the Dolphins together last year

Washington now holds the next-to-last pick (258) in this year's draft. Thought some of you would find this tidbit relevant.

This would explain the Dolphins wanting to move back up to six, but not wanting to stay at three. Sewell wouldn't have been there at 12, but 3rd would be overkill. They basically got an extra 1st rounder for moving down three spots and still getting the tackle they wanted anyway. https://t.co/aEQtAayfso
— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) April 27, 2021
The Dolphins are indeed moving Robert Hunt to right guard and Penei Sewell is a possibility at pick 6, source tells the Miami Herald.

#Dolphins wound up spending $45.525 million for Shaq Lawson, Kyle Van Noy, and Ereck Flowers who were all signed last year as free agents. All are now gone.
— Jason_OTC (@Jason_OTC) April 27, 2021
The Dolphins have shown they're unafraid to pivot from large moves in a hurry. From their 2020 free agent class:
— Field Yates (@FieldYates) April 27, 2021
DE Shaq Lawson: 3-years, $30M (traded)
OLB Kyle Van Noy: 4-years, $51M (cut)
OL Ereck Flowers: 3-years, $30M (traded)
RB Jordan Howard: 2-years, $10M (cut)

We all might have known Trevor Lawrence was the number one pick for a very long time. But the Jaguars wanted to be sure. So they put together a very creative and lengthy evaluation process. My report on @nflnetwork accompanied by a snarky @rapsheet pic.twitter.com/XtcJlXSztP

Other issue with medical checks at Indianapolis is half the usual number of players & two months later than the norm. Teams disappointed that about 8-10 players skipped out on requested imaging exams, per some GMs.

Players usually fall for 2 reasons ( medical, character). You can add 1 more this year...lack of important info. I know of a couple would be 1’s that could very well fall out of 1st. Not for me to say who they are, I don’t believe in putting out that info
— Greg Gabriel (@greggabe) April 27, 2021
If the 9ers trade Jimmy G, would make me believe they’re taking Mac Jones at 3. I think Lance needs to sit for year, which made keeping Jimmy G as the starter for 2021 a good option. No point keeping Jimmy if they draft Jones though https://t.co/W0dSWtQ36d

Food for thought when it comes to the 49ers’ QB dilemma at No.3. A mobile QB COULD add a dimension to the 49ers’ offense that NO ONE wants to face. Just the mere threat of a QB running zone-read or power-read will make the 49ers’ already potent run game a huge problem. #NFLDraft https://t.co/QBXBXTSAb9

Aside from character concerns, Parsons has a tendency to be tricked consistently with misdirection, read options, jet sweeps, etc and end up in the wrong spot. He also didn't have to man cover too much. I think scouts are projecting that ability based on his athleticism.

Remember the chair that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell sat in while in his basement during the draft last year? Turns out… that chair is headed to Cleveland! Maybe it’ll be backstage… and could turn up elsewhere throughout the week.
