One offseason later, the Washington Redskins roster is brand new.
The Washington Redskins made plenty of changes to their roster in the offseason of 2018. They started out with a bang, trading slot cornerback Kendall Fuller and a third-round pick in exchange for veteran quarterback Alex Smith, effectively ending the Kirk Cousins saga in Washington.
The Washington Redskins made strides in free agency to not only compensate for the loss of an upstart cornerback and valuable draft capital, but also to help smoothen Alex Smith’s transition into Jay Gruden’s offense.
