Re: Redskins Officially Announce Training Camp Move to Richmond/Ashburn Renovations

They don't even have a site yet?

A tract of land behind a museum? Hope it's flat and level.

They can't use any existing football fields, even high schools? If they had a place lined up, the move would make sense but despite the horrible parking lots, Ashburn seems to be a better, already intact place to practice.

Problem with Richmond is the best site to use is already in use (U of R) and the other stadium site is a wreck.

I would've loved to see VB be chosen, we already have a stadium that could be used adjacent to several outdoor practice fields and a private indoor facility that could be rented. The location is 5 min from my house.....oh well.
