As the OMFl 2019 Draft approaches, the Washington Redskins have decided to hire a new coach and general manager. Coach Jennings in a greenhorn when it comes to the OMFL, but he does carry with him a long resume of experience in various other leagues--having coached and worked as a GM in the Madden world for nearly 5 years now.

We caught up with Coach Jennings to get the low-down on what he hopes to achieve this season.

So Coach, what can you say about being named the new head coach and general manager of the Washington Redskins?

"Thanks for having me today guys. I have to say first and foremost that I am very excited to be able to step into this role and I am honored to be able to work with a franchise that has so much history and seen so much success."

This team faced some adversity last year and sits in a tough division. Your predecessor knew his time was running short and signed several big name veterans in a "win now" strategy. What will be your approach with this roster?

"No doubt this is a tough division and I look forward to facing some of the great teams that play within it. In terms of man who sat in this chair before me, I have no desire to speak ill of him but there is no doubt some roster changes needed to be made. There is some fantastic young talent on this team and in order to make sure we could resign our own guys, we had to cut some of those veterans you talked about. We just made a few moves in Free Agency that we are excited about, but at the end of the day this organization's philsophy will always be: build through the draft."

The Washington Redskins enter the draft with the 11th overall pick. There are some obvious needs at key positions that still need to be filled. Rumors are there may be some draft day movement in order to get the franchise player they are seeking. For now, all we can do is wait and see.

Thanks for tuning in and we look forward to providing you with all of the Redskins news you need to know thorughout the season.
