"While the Washington Commanders' search for a new defensive coordinator continues, it's never too early to focus on the offseason ahead. Specifically, it's sure to be a busy free agency period for Adam Peters. The Commanders have the sixth-most salary cap space in the NFL at just over $67 million. They have 30 players on expiring contracts, the vast majority of whom should not be re-signed."
"When Peters first assumed general manager duties, the Commanders were in a similar situation to the one they are in now. They'd won four games the prior year but had all of the cap space in the world. The new general manager responded by bringing a who's who of aging former Pro Bowlers to Washington, who helped guide the team to the NFC Championship game."
Washington has the sixth-most salary cap space in the NFL at just over $67 million and 30 players on expiring contracts, the vast majority of whom should not be re-signed. Adam Peters faces a pressing need to overhaul a defense that finished 27th in points allowed, dead last in yards allowed, and 31st in takeaways. Only Trey Amos, Mike Sainristil, Jordan Magee, and Dorance Armstrong Jr. appear to have uncontested starting spots. Marshon Lattimore should be cut, Bobby Wagner should be let go if he does not retire, and Peters should actively shop Daron Payne to re-acquire draft capital while bringing in multiple new defensive starters.
