The Redskins are starting to build a core of star players who will be with them for the long haul. They now have the following key players signed through at least the 2018 season:

TE Jordan Reed (signed through 2021)

OT Trent Williams (2020)

OLB Ryan Kerrigan (2020)

CB Josh Norman (2020)

P Tress Way (2020)

OL Brandon Scherff (2018 plus fifth-year team option)

OLB Preston Smith (2018)

WR Jamison Crowder (2018)

The Redskins will have their 2016 draft class signed through 2019 when they agree to deals. The team will have a fifth-year option on first-round pick Josh Doctson so he could be under contract through 2020.
