IMO the skins knew SB was going to hold out that's why they've been bringing in so many tackles.

While true...let’s be honest, this was the fuckin guy they wanted in free agency. Keim mentioned early in fa that flowers was someone to keep your eye on.

So flowers isnt a rookie but a veteran and his first impression is play comparable to unwanted furniture tossed around. FFS, Oline and Oline depth is a very serious need coming into this season. And this is the fuckin guy the skins get in free agency? It’s pure shit. Coulda spent that money somewhere else.

#7 So refreshing

The QB battle will be a good one, I think Keenum has a chip on his shoulder after Elway dumped him for Flacco

Jay Gruden says #Redskins QB Alex Smith will have his external fixator (the device that holds the broken bones in place) on for another month or so. The long road back continues for Smith.

I am 99.9% sure he will never play again. I just hope the guy recovers well enough to lead a normal life for a 35 year old.

It looks like he will be able to lead a normal life, someone posted pictures of Smith throwing few balls few days ago. Although just like you, I'm pretty sure his football career is over..

Re: Redskins O.T.A.
 

McLaurin signed his deal with the Redskins, I believe he was the last rookie, so the entire 2019 rookie class is signed.

Cam Sims standing out again, but can he actually contribute?

Leftover observations from minicamp: 1) The Redskins absolutely need Trent Williams back, which should be obvious. It's very hard to measure the play of the OL or DL without pads, but it's hard to imagine Ereck Flowers being a viable option at this point. I'm not sold on him as a LG, but we'll see more in camp; poor technique at one spot doesn't turn into good technique at another. But we'll learn more in August. 2) Rookie QB Dwayne Haskins makes some throws that reveal his special arm talent; and then other times he'll fail to get his feet turned to make a throw under duress, leading to poor throws. The key for him will be quickening his reads to give his feet more time to turn. Sometimes those throws, even with his feet turned elsewhere, work. Sometimes. But the talent is obvious. 3) Trey Quinn didn't practice Thursday, but overall seems to have had a good spring. He'll be a factor; he's tough. But they will need to see who can back him up. They have young options, but all unproven. 4) I've enjoyed watching Domonique Rodgers-Cromartie. He's a smart, savvy vet who will make others better. If a receiver does not sell a certain route, he will not bite. That's good for the young wideouts, such as Terry McLaurin. Coaches will focus on his ability to change speeds to con the corner. Rodgers-Cromartie isn't easily fooled. Entering camp, he appears to be someone who can have a range of value – as a mentor and someone who shares information with offensive guys (including Haskins). He can play slot corner and outside and will rotate to safety in various coverages (no, not full-time).

Interesting tidbit about drc, good to hear

I hope Alex Smith will prove his doubters wrong....

Not me. I hope he retires from pro football before he becomes permanently disabled. He has a greater responsibility to his family.

Re: Redskins O.T.A.
 

Checkdown Alex is finished in this league.

Re: Redskins O.T.A.
 

After drafting Haskins, why in the hell would I want Alex back? Maybe as a mentor for a year, but looking to get some cap relief after this season from his contract.
