WASHINGTON — The Washington Redskins have provided Dwayne Haskins with a familiar target to begin his NFL career. After selecting the Ohio State quarterback in Thursday’s first round, the Redskins picked up another Buckeye Friday, taking wide receiver Terry McLaurin with the 76th overall pick in the draft. Haskins “actually told me he was going to push them to draft me,” McLaurin said during a conference call Friday night. .it’s a natural fit.”After selecting McLaurin, Washington traded the 96th overall pick to the Buffalo Bills for selections 112 and 131. The route to becoming a productive NFL receiver perhaps becomes smoother with a recognizable presence throwing McLaurin passes.
