Redskins.com's Stephen Czarda provides five things to know about new Washington Redskins cornerback Orlando Scandrick, who was signed on March 19.
1. Despite being a fifth-round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, the then-21-year-old Scandrick made the Dallas Cowboys 53-man roster and appeared in every game as a rookie.
When Scandrick entered the NFL as a fifth-round pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, the Cowboys selected him just four rounds after they made Mike Jenkins, a first-team All-American selection at cornerback in 2007, their second of two first round picks.
Along with Jenkins, Dallas also had Terence Newman, a 2007 Pro Bowler, at cornerback along with veterans Anthony Henry and Adam Jones.
