Getting the background on Josh Rosen's personality and talking to Maryland's speedy RB and future pro Ty Johnson Apr 10, 2019

Show notes

Here's another fun Redskins Talk that's divided into two excellent halves. The first half features JP Finlay and Pete Hailey, as well as Katherine Fitzgerald, who covers the Cardinals out in Arizona. While on the phone, Fitzgerald provides strong insight into both Josh Rosen the QB and Josh Rosen the person. What are his strengths and weaknesses on the field, and what's he like off of it? She's got all the answers. Then, JP and Pete welcome on Maryland RB Ty Johnson (20:59), who is looking to take the next step in the NFL. In their interview, Johnson walks the guys through not being invited to the Combine, why he loves breaking off massive runs so much and how special teams will be key in making a final roster. If you like podcasts where JP's distaste for style in the NBA is revealed and Pete tries to brag to Johnson that he once lived with football players, too, then this is the episode for you.

Laying out bold predictions about the Redskins' 2019 Draft and getting a scouting report on Case Keenum from a Denver authority Apr 08, 2019

Show notes

The first part of yet another strong Redskins Talk belongs to JP Finlay, Pete Hailey and John Keim, as the three read and react to JP's five (well, it's more like eight, even though he said five) predictions about the Redskins' upcoming draft, an idea taken straight from Tandler's playbook. From who's going to be the pick at 15 to whether the team goes more offense or defense, there's plenty of good debate in that segment. Once JP wraps up, Pete chimes in with a few of his own, including one related to Mitch Tischler. The second half of the action (35:48), meanwhile, is devoted to JP's interview with Mike Klis, who covers the Broncos for 9News in Denver. In their chat, Klis breaks down Case Keenum and also goes through what to expect from the Broncos in their draft (which'll directly impact the 'Skins). If you like podcasts where Keim comes up with the bizarro-world version of Redskins Talk and Pete thirsts for a guess appearance on Keim's show, then this is the episode for you.

An analyst explains why Rosen could be a "better version" of Kirk Cousins while a reporter breaks down the QB, too Apr 05, 2019

Show notes

It's a Josh Rosen-heavy Redskins Talk for you to get the weekend going, and it's led by JP Finlay and Pete Hailey. To start, the two hosts bring on SI's Andy Benoit, one of the sharper analysts out there, to discuss Rosen. Benoit tweeted a few days ago that the second-year QB would be a perfect fit in Jay Gruden's offense, and he gets the chance to explain why. He also makes a very interesting comparison between Rosen and Kirk Cousins. Before he leaves, Benoit gives great analysis on the Redskins' need for a new left guard. After that, JP brings on The Athletic's CJ Holmes, who covers the Cards. Holmes discusses the likelihood of Arizona landing Kyler Murray at No. 1 and looks back on Rosen's first season with the dreadful offense he was forced to play with. Then, to wrap, JP and Pete bring on Big Apple Mitch — who all of the sudden is borderline too busy to hang out with his buddies — to break down another concerning development in Pete's finances. If you like podcasts where you get two different perspectives on a passer you're all wondering about and there's speculation about whether Pete can make it to the end of his lease, then this is the episode for you.

Walking through some top-of-the-draft scenarios for the Redskins and an Eagles update from a Philly reporter Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay brings you this latest edition of Redskins Talk as the NFL Draft is just three weeks away. First up is NBC Sports Washington's Ben Standig, who does more mock drafts than Mel Kiper. Yes of course, QBX gets a few mentions, as well as the linebacker that Ben has the 'Skins projected to take currently. Then, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia hops on and discusses the Jordan Howard trade (27:40) and the Eagles' expectations in 2019. And as a bonus, he and JP break down Bryce Harper's memorable return to D.C. Finally, JP reads some listener reviews (46:24). If you like podcasts where Pete takes it on the chin more than once by listeners critiquing the show — even though he's not on the program today — then this is the episode for you.

Finally, Darnell Savage (27:16), a defensive back who played at Maryland, recently joined the guys Redskins 100 and talks about his sub 4.4 40 time at the Combine.

Parsing through Jay Gruden and Bruce Allen's recent pressers for more info, then going through Pete's ridiculous expenses Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

It's just a two-man Redskins Talk today, with JP Finlay and Pete Hailey back in Bethesda to record a very interesting ep. To start, the guys open this "Parsing Pod" by picking out quotes from Jay Gruden and Bruce Allen's recent press conferences and examining them for deeper meaning and hints about the future. From Gruden saying he still doesn't like the idea of keeping 3 QBs to Bruce addressing the fact that his head coach is in a lame duck year, you'll hear those two speak then get JP and Pete's interpretation and analysis of their words. As that's going on, you'll also get to hear about Pete's terrible Facetime habits and JP's new, health-centric drink. Then, the pair transitions to some supreme shtick, as JP surprises Pete with a new game called "Take Pete's Phone And Go Through His Recent Expenses." There's some pretty shocking stuff in there, and Pete slowly crumbles as he realizes how much cash he's outlaying. If you like podcasts where JP's computer remains inoperable and you get an inside look at a millennial's spending habits, then this is the episode for you.
