Multiple Redskins officials were seen entering the Crowne Plaza hotel in Indianapolis on Wednesday evening for interviews with college draft prospects. Among them were coach Jay Gruden, senior personnel executive Doug Williams, director of pro personnel Alex Santos and multiple scouts. Neither McCloughan nor team president Bruce Allen were seen entering the meeting.

Interviews are the only real valuable piece of the combine. McC isn't there to do what he always said was the most important part - find out what's inside the player's chest, what drives them, who they are. Gruden and Doug are the ones assessing that.
It's clear as day that means those two are driving the process now. If Gruden's in the room I feel a little better. I think he understands character, heart, whether a guy likes football, and I think he knows what he wants in his team. I hope Doug and Allen defer to his judgment.
