Hogan (6-3, 218) was originally selected by the Kansas City Chiefs in the fifth round (No. 162 overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft. After joining the Browns on Sept. 5, 2016, he appeared in eight games with one start for Cleveland, completing 60-of-101 career passes for 621 yards and four passing touchdowns in addition to rushing 18 times for 176 yards with one rushing touchdown. Hogan played collegiately at Stanford, playing in 50 games for the Cardinal and setting school records for offensive yards (10,634), most career wins by a quarterback (36) and most career rushing yards by a quarterback (1,249). He earned second-team All-Pac-12 honors as a senior in 2015. A native of McLean, Va., Hogan, 25, attended Gonzaga College H.S. in Washington, D.C., where he compiled 4,762 passing yards and 37 touchdowns in three seasons. He was born Oct. 20, 1992.

markmills67 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Don't understand the trade unless we are releasing McCoy. HTTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvernon Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Tough break for Colt McCoy, but frees up a good amount of cash to potentially get Tomsula and Co. a late free agent gift. Considering what was given up, have to think this indicates they consider Hogan the probable #2. Also indicates they will probably look past late round QBs and perhaps look to UDFA to provide competition and insurance for Morris. Confident in the 2018 O-line - law of averages has to ring true here - to protect Smith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Tater Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 He is 25, a development guy we got cheap. We still have a 6th rounder (yes, a little later) but we'd probably have used this or an earlier one on a developmental QB. Now, we can draft the next Almo, Quinton Flowers!

HTTR Except colt only has one more year on contract, he was drafted by KC, so guessing Smith may like him, and we dont have to waste a pick on a developmental guy to replace colt next year...So not sure downside here... If Gruden and Smith wanted him, then gave up virtually nothing to get him.. So whats the beef? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the replacement for Sudfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcdiscokid Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Can he be put back on practice squad, not sure of the rules as it relates to that? Looks like yes, but i may be wrong... Up to four of those 10 players can have two accrued NFL seasons. So, was a player on the 53-man roster for at least six games of two NFL seasons? Sorry, they’re out of luck.

He doesn't have enough time in the league yet. And I also know there are separate rules for vets on practice squad. Would seem like a waste though. Colt is 31. I imagine this is trying to get younger at the position of backup qb with the possibility of growing him into something (doubtful though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forehead Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 McLean, eh? I wonder if he lived on the McLean side or the Langley side? I ask this because if he hadn't gone to Catholic school and lived on the McLean side, he probably would have been the best player in school history by default. Come to think of it, that could be true for Langley also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Another dumb decision by Redskins management. We had Sudfeld in the wings to develop as a potential starter. He goes to the Eagles and sets an NFL record for highest completion percentage for a first time NFL starter....in a playoff game. Just makes no sense. I would had been happier bringing in Manziel.

Cypress Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 McCoy has been nothing but stellar for the Redskins. Knows he's the backup QB but acts professionally, ready to step in when needed. It seems like he's the casualty of the cap and we're bringing in Hogan on a cheaper deal to free up cash. I'm thinking it's maybe to match whatever the Jets offer Hankins??

bobandweave Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I like this move. Now that we have this need taken care of opens the draft more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drowland Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Hogan’s a decent prospect. He’s big and mobile with a good arm. He had a funky throwing motion coming out of Stanford which it seems he’s shortened it up. I mean they probably could of waited and picked him up for nothing but the price isn’t bad. If you like him and he’s available in a trade better to have him when QB camp starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandyHolt Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I know nothing I see nothing! I think its good to bring in someone young. We are suddenly old at the QB position, and are still stinging from losing Sudsy who is getting that ring appraised about now. Moving down 17 slots seems fine to get a young guy with size and real life experience. Vs drafting a 6th rounder with zippy NFL tape. I like it. Loot Cleveland until they prove otherwise. I wonder if Doug was involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
