I think this TE group is the worst positional group I've ever scouted. I've landed on Day 2 grades for only three players. Difficult to see anyone becoming anything more than a good TE2.

Austin Hooper on his free agent decision...

"The Redskins were definitely a team that had shown interest. ... That was probably going to be my next landing spot. It really came down to Cleveland and Washington. In the end I chose to be a Brown." (H/t @JPFinlayNBCS) https://t.co/eKQNRDTGqG
Pretty clear now that #Redskins plan A in FA wasn’t just to get Coop. They wanted Coop and Hoop. Swinging hard for weapons. I’d be shocked if they weren’t disappointed, but I think they still really desire playmakers.

Is this a move they should make? https://t.co/3DEdqf7IKh
Another highlight (good game for him; will check out others not as productive to learn more). But like here how he holds LB with eyes/head. Cuts out/gap/ez$. Seems to be a good route runner overall. pic.twitter.com/7UdJKpjUII

It's a matter of when, not if, in my view. Here's just some of the reasons. https://t.co/fzLQ3t1vvP#HTTR #Skins #NFL #KeepPounding pic.twitter.com/aqu1F0Z06q
If football is canceled this fall, would the Redskins have the second overall pick in each round in the 2021 draft? I hope we play this fall, but I must ask the question.
— Ken Burgundy (@BurgundyBurner) March 27, 2020
Betcha he can’t.
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 28, 2020
I have no idea. I’m hearing same medical reports as everyone else. And I also don’t believe the nfl would play even if others aren’t. Holding FA and the draft far different than exposing people -fans players and anyone — to illness if this is still around
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 28, 2020
Highly doubt the nfl even knows
— John Keim (@john_keim) March 28, 2020
Yeah maybe. No idea. I’m sure after the draft they’ll have to start considering all situations. Hopefully we have this thing in a better spot by then.

My understanding it’s a one-year, $2.5 million deal for Devin Funchess with the #Packers — $1M signing bonus, $1.2M base salary, $50K workout bonus and $15,625 for each game active. Another $3.75M available in incentives, so max is $6.25M. https://t.co/r8Ghgpc2Ty

Ravens; ‘Hey...remember when we signed Ryan Grant to that absurd contract and everyone made fun of us so we voided the deal and signed Michael Crabtree?So...we’re kinda getting killed for the Brockers deal.

Demarcus Robinson’s one-year deal is worth $2,297,500 fully guaranteed. That’s the maximum allowed to qualify for the new veteran salary benefit under the CBA. So Robinson gets guaranteed money, but only counts around $1M on the #Chiefs’ cap. https://t.co/e5REnm4Uvm

Death totals due to Coronavirus in CA, WA, NY, and LA. Both linear and log scales (3/28 numbers will rise).
— Football Perspective (@fbgchase) March 28, 2020
Linear scale makes NY look scary and it is! Log scale shows: (1) WA has done great, (2) things are not great in NY, and (3) CA / LA are on ugly trends (esp LA per capita) pic.twitter.com/oiUvjfv00n
It's worth noting that Louisiana, like several states, is a tale of two stories: New Orleans, and not New Orleans.
— Football Perspective (@fbgchase) March 28, 2020
Just over 50% of all LA deaths have been in NOLA despite the city having less than 10% of the state's population.
