#Redskins re-sign offensive lineman Zac Kerin. He will provide interior depth for the squad. https://t.co/DpoygTUvWw
— Riggo's Rag (@RiggosRag) March 19, 2019
Zac Kerin played 48 snaps (all at LG) and finished with:

- 51.7 overall grade
- 79.0 pass block grade (23 snaps)
- 45.3 run block grade (25 snaps) https://t.co/XgadxuFbg1
This is too expensive https://t.co/RkLakCSoAY

add in the fact it cost them a 6th rd comp pick next year. Ridiculous
— Steve Shoup (@Steveospeak) March 19, 2019
For comparison sake: last year Lauvao received $300K to sign and had $1.3 mil cap hit. Also: 45 OGs have more guaranteed $ this year than Flowers (who will play G here); 34 got more $$ to sign.... https://t.co/EElWoBQX6a

Flowers? No https://t.co/OHhDIuyajz
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) March 19, 2019
So everyone can calm down on the money some, but the question remaining is what comes next. If Redskins plan on Flowers as the LG or 6th man, that seems incredibly dicey https://t.co/bdJH0K9sIf

So, Keim saying that Redskins are going to play him at guard, not just insurance at tackle.
— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) March 19, 2019
Actually liked him coming out of college -- raw mauler -- but Giants drafted him WAY too high. Moving to guard could hide a lot of his flaws. Not sold on him being an answer at LG, though https://t.co/XvdISOV6wZ

And there we have it, folks. The dumbest signing of the offseason. #Redskins https://t.co/WjRgZvIv4Z

If the breakdown is more the $1 guaranteed, that’s too much. And that’s not a typo. https://t.co/c81DwhxzZw

Just realized the #Redskins now have more players on their roster from the #Giants 2015 draft (Ereck Flowers, Landon Collins) than their own 2015 draft (Brandon Scherff).
— Jake Russell (@_JakeRussell) March 19, 2019
Landon Collins, when utilized correctly, is among the league's top safeties.

More on his usage and prospects in Washington ⬇️ ⬇️ https://t.co/DEFxM7JOL6 pic.twitter.com/F45hHT9EPc
he's one of the plans. but needs to get situation settled first. need to add more. hard to count on apke; no clue where he'll be at and did not show last year ready for more than backup/ST role. can draft, but can only draft so many players and after 3rd round, always iffy
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 19, 2019
Just an FYI. no clue yet if he'll be traded or what it would take to get him.. https://t.co/4gcWhvS895
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 19, 2019
Working out in the #Redskins favor. Though, I’d still consider moving up a few spots if they slide just to secure a guy. https://t.co/fEuXSMlPnf

Robert Quinn was spotted today on his way to visit the #Cowboys, who are in trade talks with the #Dolphins for the veteran DE, sources say. Quinn would need to agree to any deal. So, this is another step in the process, with a Dallas team that obviously needs pass rush.

I know everyone will say a $430 million contract will never happen in football but just wait until Dave Gettleman extends Eli Manning.
