So here's a hypothetical, when our 3rd round pick comes up and Jalen Hurts is still on the board (I know he probably won't), and he is the highest rated player on your board...are you taking him there?

Yes, Id go BPA still in R3.
Kyle Smith did a press conference a few weeks ago and stressed BPA. He also said some other interesting (but not controversial or non-traditional) things. I heard cut ups of it in the car but im pretty sure I heard him do the same thing everyone says, some variation of "we always go BPA ... but we also have to take into account the roster and needs". But instead he implied what happens in FA will somewhat effect who they draft ... sounds like "need" is a consideration to me. I would have to listen to it again, to be sure.
He sounded good though, instilled confidence he knows what he is doing.
Kyle Smith said the staff including scouts reviewed the players let go, Josh Norman, Paul Richardson and Jordan Reed. And ultimately made a decision when he and Ron Rivera got behind closed doors to make the final decision on fits #HTTR

Yeah I had the same feeling after hearing that as well from him. I know we always look forward to free agency and the draft in hopes that these new players will help turn things around for this team, but it definitely has a different feel this time around.
AnonEmouse 03-10-2020, 04:44 PM If Hurts is still there I'd say a trade might be best value. Do we really want a QB controversy as we'd have if we draft Tua?

What we want is competition and a competent backup. I'd be happy to see the Skins take Hurts in the third round.
skinsfaninok 03-10-2020, 06:04 PM FWIW the Skins get a 4th rd comp pick
Chico23231 03-12-2020, 12:46 PM Dan Snyder press release:
Due to health and travel concerns surrounding COVID-19, we have informed all of our scouts and coaches that they must return to their home bases and travel will be suspended until further notice, Washington owner Daniel Snyder said in a statement issued Thursday morning. The health and safety of our staff and players is our number one priority and we feel that these are the necessary precautions given the current circumstances.
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/03/12/daniel-snyder-suspends-travel-for-team-employees/
Washington joins a (for now) short list of teams that have taken their scouts and coaches off the road. Every other team needs to follow suit, immediately
Agree with Snyder, Plus CY is LOCK
skinsfaninok 03-12-2020, 02:16 PM I'd imagine u will see a couple weeks of travel slow down big time
Wonder when they'll start pushing back free agency, the draft, mini camps, etc.
Schneed10 03-12-2020, 02:37 PM Wonder when they'll start pushing back free agency, the draft, mini camps, etc.
Free agency should be able to proceed, it's not a mass gathering like games or training camps, and the risks of being exposed during travel can be mitigated with masks.
With the draft, they may decide to do it with no players present, or behind closed doors / remotely.
