The Facts: The strength of Doctson’s game coming out of TCU was his ability to track the ball downfield and make contested catches. HC Jay Gruden would compare his tracking skills to that of Cincinnati receiver A.J. Green, though not quite as good. "It's just a matter of getting that rapport with Alex [Smith]," Gruden said. "I'm not worried about his confidence. ... He's an ultra-talented kid, without a doubt. His ball skills are top-notch and we've just got to find ways to get him the ball in those situations."

Diehards Line: Doctson played in just two games his rookie season -- and missed all of the spring workouts -- because of issues with both Achilles. He played all 16 games last year, eventually starting as the X receiver and catching 35 passes for 502 yards and six touchdowns. He said he's noticed a difference in himself this spring. The Redskins need their 2015 first-round pick to continue developing, both as a player and in his rapport with Smith. The two have connected often in recent OTAs. ... It's a sign of progress for Doctson, who has been limited to brief flashes to date. He might be worth a mid-to-late round flyer based on his potential alone.
