Who in the fuck is running the draft? Bruce doesn't watch tape and we have no gm. Jay is a head coach.. that means, he should not be running it.

Scott Campbell is my hope, but who really knows at this point. I hope McC's ability to scout talent rubbed off on Campbell.

From what I've seen in free agency, we still got a lot of work to do. Pass rusher, dline, corner, ilb...we must add additional bodies there.

On Offense: WR, RB and interior online are all must adds.

Long way to go...adding a gm might be a good idea. Probably need to get on that soon, especially since the move to Fire McC has been in the works since before the combine. Probably should have had a plan to replace him. Looks like that's too much to ask.
Why do you have to ask the question who is running the draft? There have been a crap ton of articles stating that they continue to follow McCloughan's board.

It's his board, with Jay and Doug interviewing the players at the combine to assess heart/character. If that's how the board is set, what does it matter who runs the draft room?

I doubt Scot's draft board was done when he left. There were plenty of Pro Days after the combine too.

No. That's exactly what all reports said. He had the draft board built. It surely would have been tweaked following the combine. But it is definitely not just a free agent board.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

I love how we're all like yeah great signing! Ty was an exclusive rights free agent. We tendered him on February 28th, which restricted him from negotiating with anybody else.

He's been a Redskin since the moment we tendered him on Feb 28th.

But go Bruce, yay!

John Keim retweeted this...

@MikeTriplett: Free agent #Saints RB Tim Hightower is visiting #Redskins today, per source – considering a possible reunion...

Confirmed by Mike Jones

Per @MikeJonesWaPo: Redskins are indeed hosting Tim Hightower for a free agent visit, source confirms. Played here in 2011. Injury cut his time here short.

Re: Redskins Free Agent Signings

I really like Hightower, but this isn't the Hightower I was hoping for.


Adding Hightower to the RB corp wouldn't really move the needle for me. "just a guy" type signing. Hopefully we are seriously looking in the draft for a difference maker.
