.@JPFinlayNBCS tells us that the #Redskins have been trying to trade Josh Doctson for the last two years. Says Richardson, Quinn, McLaurin and maybe even Cam Sims are all ahead of him on the depth chart. "It wouldn't shock me if he gets released."

Washington CB Quinton Dunbar might be the biggest sleeper at any #FFIDP position. Top 10 among DBs in points per game last year. Was on pace for 16-game line of 100 tackles and 22 passes defensed.

#Redskins are without Colt McCoy, Fabian Moreau and Jordan Brailford today. Shaun Wilson remains out and will be out a while. Probably hits IR next week. https://t.co/CsIRmqInUc

The #Redskins D-line has been praised all offseason, so I dug up as many glowing quotes as I could and put them into one story to show all the hype they're receiving https://t.co/96f6mTJ9Jq
Sounds like a must win for both teams

According to a team spokesperson, Kenny Stills knew the Jay-Z music was coming, and it wasn’t intended to challenge Stills’ stance on the rapper’s partnership with the NFL. I can’t speak to how @KSTiLLS received the Jay-Z tribute at practice. That would have to come from Kenny. pic.twitter.com/ThDamHx8RA

Depending on whether Dallas can pick up a 5th round 2020 compensatory pick for Cole Beasley (depends on George Iloka), there may be only 12 teams that receive comp picks in this draft.
— Nick Korte (@nickkorte) August 21, 2019
That would be an unusually low number, maybe the lowest ever.
#Broncos coach Vic Fangio told me rookie TE Noah Fant, who suffered a minor ankle injury in last preseason game, will be ready for Week 1. Good news for first-round pick who has impressed as a blocker as well as a receiver. Could make immediate impact.

Hey @dannykanell can you do me a favorite and point out where Baker "apologizes"? I see the part where Baker says, "This is not what I said," but I'm having trouble finding this "apology" (i.e. admission of guilt) you are talking about. Thanks. #hater pic.twitter.com/9J8POnktqh

Ok, so who wasn’t shocked when the Giants took Daniel Jones? The entire NFL world was shocked and people are losing their minds that Baker said it out loud? We want our athletes to be real. It doesn’t get any more real than Baker.

Well then let's see what the NY media had to say about the Dan Jones pick:
— Roberto Shenanigans (@Rob_Shenanigans) August 21, 2019
"You know what his record was when playing in the ACC? He was 7 wins, 17 losses. 57% completion rate... You don't take Daniel Jones at 6! There is a word for the Daniel Joneses of the world: "Day 2 Guy"! pic.twitter.com/RUXYNsGcOQ
