Class of 2020 looking sharp

Certainly 2020 will be remembered as one of the worse of our lives thanks to the pandemic. Future mentions will bring crinkled faces and anguished looks.

But for the Washington Football Team, it’s all good. A solid draft class that figures to be one of the foundations of future success.

No. 2 overall pick Chase Young has been everything expected and more. He’s simply balling nowadays to lead the team’s resurgence. Antonio Gibson was looking at offensive rookie of the year honors before suffering turf toe against Pittsburgh that will probably cost him several games. Safety Kamren Curl has drawn raves from coaches as a seventh-rounder.

OK, that’s just three draft picks, but injuries took out fourth-rounders Saadiq Charles and Antonio GandyGolden. Fifth-round linebacker Khaleke Hudson, center Keith Ismael and defensive tackle James Smith-Williams are reserves. And, throw in recent rookie pickup defensive end Casey Toohill and 2020 will be remembered for its plusses from newcomers.
