Receiver Josh Doctson isn't a lock to make the Redskins' roster; that doesn't mean he won't but it does mean the team has a decision to make. They have shopped him in the past and, given the young talent they have at receiver, that's expected to be an... https://t.co/NLAcITNmkD

He did not play in the first game when starters sat. He will not play in the 4th game when key players sat. I cannot see any way the #Redskins cut him. Trade? They'll try. https://t.co/dU9bVXQPxh

There are more quality QBs than LTs in the NFL right now. I can’t see the Dolphins trading the best young LT in the league. Good luck finding a replacement with similar talent in the next 5 years.

Minor scare at #Eagles practice: WR DeSean Jackson suffered a broken ring finger on his left hand in today’s workout, sources say. My understanding is he’s not expected to miss time and the team is not concerned.

Source: Re: #Eagles WR Desean Jackson fractured ring finger, Jackson was told it is a 3-4 wk injury. He's scheduled to try out a custom splint tomorrow, at this time. I'm told, he's not sure what his comfort will be playing w/it, will determine later if he'll play b4 fully healed
