"Having grown up in D.C., I've been rockin' with the Redskins since I was a kid. Since I'm constantly on the road, I have a chain with a large gold Redskins logo pendant, so it's always close to me wherever I am. I'm truly honored & excited to be a part of Draft Day. Huge thank you to Daniel Snyder & the entire Redskins organization," Wale said.

Admission and parking for the Draft Day Party is free for all fans. Parking lots open at 10 a.m. and fans will be admitted through the Comcast SportsNet Gate (Gate H) at 11 a.m. For more details on the Draft Day Party and to register for the event, visit www.Redskins.com/DraftDay.

All fans can watch the NFL Draft on the high definition video boards, as well as tour the Redskins locker room, test their passing and kicking skills, dress like a Redskins player, climb the rock wall, take pictures with the Super Bowl trophies and win exclusive prizes throughout the day through various raffles. A group of current and former Redskins players will be on hand to sign autographs and take pictures with fans, schedules permitting.

The Draft Day Party will also feature USA Football "Heads Up Football" tutorials, as well as interactive panels on smaller field stages as part of activities.
