Wide receiver Paul Richardson is expected to sign with the Washington Redskins sometime this week, according to NFL Insider Adam Caplan on Twitter. NFL Network's Mike Garafalo reports that the agreement is for a five-year, $40 million deal, with $20 million in guarantees. (Adam Caplan on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Caplan reports that Washington has been looking to add a "speed" wide receiver to line up opposite Josh Doctson, and Richardson certainly fits that bill. With such a large contract being offer, the Redskins are surely hoping they can tap into more of the young wide receiver's speed and potential. Richardson caught 44 passes for 703 yards and six touchdowns last season.
