For Round 3, the Redskins returned to Columbus, Ohio.
The Washington Redskins selected wide receiver out of Ohio State Terry McLaurin with the 13th pick in the 3rd round (No. 76 overall).
According to 106.7 The Fan Redskins reporter Craig Hoffman, an NFC Scout described McLaurin as "Extremely fast, but hands are questionable." He is a "polished route runner," but he "struggled to navigate traffic."
At Ohio State, he had 1251 receiving yards on 75 catches in three seasons and 19 touchdowns. In his senior year playing with once and future Redskins teammate quarterback Dwayne Haskins, McLaurin hauled down 35 catches for 701 yards and 11 TDs.
And the two are excited to be reunited.

— Dwayne Haskins, Jr-- (@dh_simba7) April 27, 2019McLaurin, who measured in at 6'0, 208 pounds, ran a 4.35 40-yard dash with a 37.5 inch vertical jump, sees some of former Redskins WR DeSean Jackson in his game.
He specifically says he hesitated to mention DJax as a guy he looked up to because Desean played here."I'm not trying to be Desean Jackson. I'm just trying to be Terry McLaurin."
