Redskins should keep a close eye on Montez Sweat amid concerns about medical condition

The Washington Redskins have been opportunistic in drafting players that have fallen due to medical issues in the past few seasons. The team has focused on adding talented players that slip in recent drafts, and they have landed some quality playmakers as a result.

There are a few prime examples of this, but none are more notable than 2017 first-round pick Jonathan Allen, who fell due to shoulder concerns and average athletic testing. From that same draft, the ‘Skins scooped up third-round pick Fabian Moreau, who suffered a torn pectoral at his Pro Day.
