Steve Spurrier is right: Gibran Hamdan just looks like an NFL quarterback. At least when he opens his mouth.

It's a hazy, humid morning at Redskin Park, session one of Washington's initial spring mini-camp. The first day of the rest of Hamdan's football life. A day for tossing picture-perfect spirals (a few times), standing around (most of the time), and watching other guys take practice snaps (pretty much all of the time).
As Hamdan makes his way up the grassy incline that leads from the practice field to the Redskins' locker room, he's met by a reporter. Then two. Then a half-dozen. Plus a couple of camera crews.
The crush is somewhat surprising, given that Hamdan, a seventh-round draft pick out of Indiana University, is months away from throwing a pro pass. Or even holding on an extra point.
