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

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Where the tackles are it’s almost smarter to wait and nab Blake Fisher or Rosengarten in the 3rd.

Take Kool-Aid, McConkey or DeJean and BPA at 40.

Roman Wilson is another guy that would be fantastic value in the 3rd if he makes it that far. I think he’s going to be legit.

If we can get Kool Aid and McC with our 2nds ill be thrilled

Seems like some good CBs and WRs available with the first two picks.

 

[Cush]

 

[RandyHolt]

I also prefer Maye.


Rivera would have wanted to reach on a utility player

High character and best athlete in the draft.

Unrelated did not take the 5th year option on Jamin Davis.

Give me a break, i really liked maye too but daniels is still an awesome prospect, its not the same as taking forbes at all. Don’t be so miserable

 

[bacchist]

We could have had Joe Alt.

 

[John Price]

 

[ynotcaps]

The pick is made, the QB is in the building. And whoever still wants to complain that it wasn't your guy, take comfort in the fact that most of the NFL -- all of whom know better than us -- like our guy better. As did our new staff, who we've pretty much universally said we trust.

Time for the whining to stop and the winning to begin.

 

[ynotcaps]

I would love DeJean, but I don't think the FB gods do us that solid.

But the run on QBs and OTs really has left some good players on the board at CB and WR especially.

As long as CDJ, KAM and McC aren't the first 3 picks of rhe second we'll have an absolute stud at one of those positions of need available.

 

[Roric]

Lets load up on weapons, don't reach for OT just because its a need. Lots of good players still left

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

I’m on Team Jayden this morning and back on the hype wagon. Going to forget/ignore the red flags and the fact that he wore the same suit as RGIII — what’s done is done and I’ll be rooting hard for him. I’ve already convinced myself he’s Lamar Jackson 2.0 but better in the playoffs.

The run on OT was a kick in the pants but should leave some really good players available. Five picks today (!) will make the day pretty fun. As of now we have 36 and 40 in R2 and 67, 78, and 100 in R3. Yesterday and today will hopefully set the foundation for a competitive team for years to come, excited to see what Peters and his brain trust can pull off.

lets hope your right , what i see him is as a guy who'll run around , make the odd exciting play but for the most part we'll be making excuses how he doesn't have anyone around him to be successful

 

[Chokingdogs]

My biggest issue with Daniels isn’t so much rgiii regrets, it’s more of the fact running QBs have yet to win anything of substance. He’s described and talked about as a running QB.

You mean the exact same excuses people made for Maye regressing this year?

I know we need a CB and a WR, but drafting for need is always a tough move. If we passed on Jackson Powers-Johnson, we'll regret it in 15 yeah when he's wrapping up a hall of fame career.

 

[Brian23]

I feel like comparing Griffin to Daniels is a ridiculous thing, they're completely different players.

My big issues with Daniels is still he takes sacks at an absurd rate (we just saw how well that goes with Sam), he doesn't utilize the middle of the field, and he's not someone who's shown the ability to pair his running with his throwing.

It is what it is though, he's here.

 

[kicksavedave]

My biggest issue with Daniels isn’t so much rgiii regrets, it’s more of the fact running QBs have yet to win anything of substance. He’s described and talked about as a running QB.

He had the highest QBR in college football history and passed for 72%. He's a more polished pocket passer than CW and DM is by a long margin. He threw for over 12,000 yards in college.

 

[Roric]

Get cooper dejean and a WR next/trade for aiyuk

 

[kicksavedave]

Apparently it was unanimous in the room.

 

[hotpaws]

You mean the exact same excuses people made for Maye regressing this year?

nope , it'll be the JD supporters who ignored the stacked team he was on and ignored the weak team Maye was on who'll be making up excuses

drafting players is about projecting how they'll be at the next level and not who had the best most recent season because if was about taking the QB who had the best season JD would have gone 1st overall

i keep seeing the tape on JD and almost all of it was him having 5/6 seconds plus in a clean pocket before he makes he throws usually to a wide open receivers , he'll have no where near that time in the pros so hopefully for us his game translates at this level

anyway this being said it could be much much worse , i could be a Falcons fan wondering how much crack the guys running the draft had to smoke before they selected Penix Jr at 8 , lol

Current depth chart from Hogs Haven (skins website never has an up to date depth chart .. was hoping harris would have fixed that)...

huge needs at LT and CB1 .. WR3

 

[Brian23]

12,000 yards in college.

This is as much because he played a full 4 years then anything else.
