Social Recap: NFL Draft, Day 1

Apr 29, 2016 at 06:30 AM

The Redskins' waited patiently for the 21st pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, then made a trade with the Houston Texans to move back a spot, waited some more, and then finally got their man.

Josh Doctson, the wide receiver from TCU, hugged his family and then Commissioner Roger Goodell, and then started to familiarize himself with the burgundy and gold.

In case you missed any of the action, and reaction, last night, here's a recap of how it all happened last night, via Redskins social media.

Gruden says Doctson was "clearly the best player on the board" when the #Redskins traded back to No. 22 pick.

Gruden says the signing of CB Josh Norman on Friday was similar to a first-round pick for the defense; will address that unit later.

Gruden believes Doctson could be a contributor Week 1. "I anticipate him challenging for a lot of (footballs) in this offense."

Gruden says Doctson reminds him of A.J. Green, the coach's former receiver when he was offensive coordinator with the Bengals.
