The Washington Commanders had the 5th best rushing offense in the NFL last year. Now that was mostly due to Jayden Daniels and his almost 900 yards rushing.

When Adam Peters and Dan Quinn took most of their Top 30 draft targets to Top Golf for an outing in 2024, it was widely viewed as a farce. Jayden Daniels was there. Drake Maye was there. As it turns out, it was an effective look at how the players interact and resulted in most of their picks being at that outing. This year they did it again. Will the picks again come from this group?
The Commanders currently have 6 wide receivers on the roster and 5 of them have expiring contracts. Only last year's 3rd round pick, Luke McCaffrey has more than 1 year left on his deal.

Jayden Daniels had the best QB rookie season ever. How can he manage to back that season up and not fall prey to the dreaded sophomore slump?
Washington Commanders General Manager Adam Peters has rebuilt the Offensive Line in just 2 offseasons. Each of the starters has been hand-picked and have deals that run through at least 2 more seasons. Will they still feel the need to draft one if they feel they have good value with pick 29, or even if they trade back? Or is it bad roster management to draft someone that high who would be considered a backup for at least 2 years?
Between Adam Peters and Dan Quinn talking with the media to NFL rule changes, we have plenty to talk about this week. We take viewer input as well while we talk about what's happening around the team and league.

Nathan is almost certain the Washington Commanders will trade back from their spot at 29. If Adam Peters does move back, what would that trade look like? We have a few scenarios to look over and see what players the Commanders could get if they end up moving back.
The Washington Commanders need a strong edge rusher to fill out their roster. Will one of the top 5 targets fall to them? Should they reach for a guy just because it fits a need. We take a look at who we think might be there and wonder if Adam Peters would pick him.
