The Facts:
OC Sean McVay praised Griffin for how he handled the offseason -- physically and mentally. “He did an excellent job above the neck,” McVay said, “as far as absorbing the new system, some of the terminology. … He’s done an excellent job translating his knowledge in the meeting room onto the field, recognizing some of those looks. Some of the audible situations we’ll give him the opportunity to call things at the line. He’s shown he’s fully capable of doing it and that’s what gives him a great chance to have success this year.”

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Griffin did not call audibles the first two seasons, but in talking to players the past two years, ESPN.com's John Keim learned the Redskins had built-in rules in their offense so that if a bad look presented itself, there were automatic checks to another option. That said, the new staff seems much more open to letting Griffin make adjustments at the line of scrimmage lending further credence to our belief the biggest priority in Washington is making sure Griffin regains the form he demonstrated as a rookie in 2012.
