I asked @Theismann7 his take on Trent Williams, here’s what he had to say. #httr #redskins https://t.co/s5XJy1eVhS

Skins never really discussed signing him (or certainly wasn’t a long discussion). But if they didn’t fill some spots figured maybe later they’d reconsider. But back to KC. Always liked Breeland. https://t.co/hRciMWdU5s

You’re incorrect on thinking it means they’re trading back. I have been consistent since day 1 saying it would take a massive haul. Nothing has changed. They’re fine staying at 2. The only “key” FA they didn’t get was Cooper. Doesn’t mean won’t trade but Def wouldn’t assume

Ha. I respond quite a bit. Impossible to respond to all. Reported at time and Rivera said the other day: never really in on hooper. Liked but $$ too high. And Olsen was not a prime signing guy. They’d want as a no 2 TE at this stage of career. Of course no clue yet who would be 1

For some reason & I have no idea why - #Redskins QB Dwayne Haskins posted the "selfie" picture from the #Lions win again. Not a great thing to do IMO. Was a lesson really absorbed?https://t.co/VxUndKerLc#HTTR #Skins #NFL @Redskins pic.twitter.com/AiyIu6O7Tw

Reports: Guice has now joined Haskins during offseason workouts. Which is ideal, since the future of the Redskins offense hinges on these two. With no major weapons added this off-season, Haskins has to make strides fast and Guice has to play 16 games. If so, they can win. #HTTR pic.twitter.com/QXEK9NWn0A

Former NFL exec unloads on Tua: Uncovers previously unreported injury, failed physicalhttps://t.co/sfR9mRKl7j
— Armando Salguero (@ArmandoSalguero) April 9, 2020
Had an opposing DC tell me that THE most overlooked quality of Tua is his toughness. Physically and mentally. Could not talk enough about how tough he was

Yea-and if you’re injured younger it’s better than being injured older no?

One of the biggest questions for the 2020 Draft: Would Tua Tagovailoa have a Pro Day? In the end, it was a Virtual Pro Day with film sent to all 32 teams. Our understanding is #Bama WR Jerry Jeudy and #Vandy WR Kalija Lipscomb were among the top prospects to help Tua put it on.

Here is another make-shift Pro Day: This time, #Oregon LB Troy Dye, who played the second half of the season with a club on his hand for a broken thumb and a meniscus tear that cost him postseason games and workouts.

Henry Ruggs @AlabamaFTBL 5-11, 188. 4.27 in 40. Has all the traits you want in WR. Deep speed, good feet to make quick cuts, good hands. Could use some route work. 1st rd pick. Better than Calvin Ridley (1st rd pick) @AtlantaFalcons @NFLDraft @nflnetwork pic.twitter.com/U3VS0cxtNA

South Carolina WR Bryan Edwards, who fractured his fifth metatarsal before the Combine, has his boot off now and is moving around well, I’m told. Teams were just sent updated images and scans of the Day 2 WR, who is the Gamecocks all-time leader in receptions.

Great news for Moss, biggest issue with him was the health of his knee. Teams should now be fairly comfortable taking him in the 2nd tier of backs. https://t.co/6QXkpHRBDN

Am I crazy for liking Ashtyn Davis more than Xavier McKinney?
— Brett Kollmann (@BrettKollmann) April 9, 2020
Not that I don't love McKinney (I do), but I think Ashtyn's got everything - range, ball skills, fluidity, intelligence, toughness and physicality. They played him both high and in the box. A true do-it-all safety. pic.twitter.com/1XSUFcBpuc
Weird draft nugget: Michigan has 4 draftable linemen but somehow they finished 77th in the nation in rushing. That's bizarre.

One team to watch during the NFL Draft is the #Lions: At No. 3, I’m told they’ve had discussions with teams about potentially moving back from their slot and that teams wanting to move up have been receptive. As it maps out possibilities, Detroit is always an intriguing team.

Speaking to people in and around college football this week, there is “strong conviction” there will be college football this season. Uncertainty about when - multiple scenarios being debated - but they sound certain there still will be college football this season.

Wimbledon reportedly paid $2 million a year for pandemic insurance for the last 17 years

For this year's cancellation as a result of the Coronavirus, Wimbledon will reportedly receive $141 million from the policy.
Of all the recent media conspiracy theories, “sportswriters rooting for football to be postponed” is a doozy.
