There has been a narrative in Washington over the past few years that the Redskins are turning into Alabama North, with the number of former Crimson Tide players that they have on their roster.
The Alabama representation ranges from Daron Payne, Jonathan Allen and Landon Collins, all the way to Ryan Anderson, Shaun Dion Hamilton, Reuben Foster, and Ross Pierschbacher. Yea, the Redskins are fond of players who came up in Tuscaloosa.
However, there may be a new team on the block, so to say, after the 2020 NFL Draft. With the selections of Dwayne Haskins and Terry McLaurin in 2019, the Redskins are now in line to take former Ohio State defensive end, Chase Young, with the No. 2 pick in 2020, and Haskins is starting to lobby for his team to draft a receiver from the Buckeyes as well.

Hill has turned a few heads this week in the Senior Bowl practices, and he’s undoubtedly helped his draft stock thus far. After 10 touchdowns in his senior year at Ohio State, plus his relationship with Haskins as a WR2 in 2018, the Redskins will surely do their due diligence on Hill ahead of the draft. With a need at the WR spot and an understandable love for Ohio State receivers, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Hill come to Washington this year.
