OT: 2024 Washington Commanders off-season thread: change we can believe in!

[Cush]

Roman Wilson.

Booker and Khyree Jackson are great Quinn fits.

Bucky Irving

Wilson gone

 

[Cush]

two more edge rushers gone

Adisa Isaac to the Ravens

Jaylx Hunt to the Eagles

Believe Washington met with both

and of course Pitt takes Payton Wilson

 

[Ridley Simon]

I’d love Tampa, another CB. Or Sanders, the TE. Lots of good players left

Kinchens was a good pick

 

[Cush]

Luke McCaffrey, WR, Rice (Christian's brother)

lol, I picked him multiple times in sims

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

He has that bloodline and can sling the ball for trick plays

Love that pick. He's been on my radar, maybe a bit early, but he's going to have a good career. Yeah I picked him a lot too, but usually in the 4th.

We don’t have a 4th so we had make a move

 

[Cush]

well, no picks until the 5th and then one in the 7th

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

ESPN Loving our draft right now. Yates says we killed the day 2 picks

 

[Roric]

Luke mccaffrey oh thats interesting

 

[Ridley Simon]

The Athletic didn’t like the Sinnott pick. Have it a D-, as they wanted us to pick an OT. Meh.

 

[John Price]

 

[RedRocking]

Seems like the focus was on tough, versatile football guys.

Players that have made their mark at multiple positions - good IQ.

 

[Cush]

hoping they can find a way to trade up into the 4th for an edge rusher or LB

 

[Ridley Simon]

So….summary:
QB Jaden Daniels
DT Jer’Zhan Newton
CB Mike Sainistril
TE Ben Sinnott
OL Brandon Coleman
WR Luke McCaffrey

Every position except Edge…..and maybe LB or RB.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

we would have had to reach for a OT every pick we had. I like a lot of what I read about Sinnott. He can block and play FB in short yardage.

Yea, that’s my favorite pick. I went real deep on the TEs when I thought it would be Maye.

Sinnott is another of these monster TEs from the Midwest. He’ll be useful in a variety of ways depending on what KK wants. Ertz can help him develop as a safety valve for JD.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

There’s a lot to like in all our 2nd rounders. They might all be starters. I think we took a bit of a chance in the 3rd.

I get your point — but I’m not sure where Newton “starts”, with Payne and Allen in front of him

Kiper:

Washington Commanders​

The picks: DT Jer'Zhan Newton (No. 36), CB Mike Sainristil (No. 50), TE Ben Sinnott (No. 53)

I mentioned the Commanders' trade with the Eagles above, and Washington ended up with three second-round picks. New GM Adam Peters landed a game-wrecker for the middle of his defense. He got the best slot corner in this class. And he got my second-ranked tight end, a player who could make plays in the pass game and block his butt off in the run game. This is a home run Round 2 class for the Commanders, who entered this draft with a lot of holes.

To finish out Round 3, Washington took wideout Luke McCaffrey, which was a reach based on my rankings. Still, Christian's brother has the physical traits to be an intriguing flier.

Th Coleman is a guard more than an OT, so I would say we are still missing that
