"The Commanders need to get younger. How Peters goes about that is anyone's guess, but with only six selections in the 2026 NFL Draft - two of which are in the opening four rounds - the challenge is there for all to see. Washington has so few picks because of the trades for cornerback Marshon Lattimore and Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil."
"Dan Quinn went for the win in overtime, and Marcus Mariota's pass was batted down, extending the Commanders' dreadful losing streak. It's clear that this offseason has to be all about surrounding Jayden Daniels with the pieces he needs to succeed. Daniels needs weapons, and landing an elite wide receiver like Jordyn Tyson would give this team an incredible duo for Daniels to work with."
Adam Peters must reverse his offseason strategy after a 3-9 record and falling out of playoff contention. The Commanders need to get younger but enter the 2026 NFL Draft with only six selections, two in the opening four rounds, creating an urgent challenge. Limited picks stem from trades for cornerback Marshon Lattimore and Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil, one of which paid off while the other did not. Several critical roster holes require attention through free agency and the draft. Holding the No. 6 overall pick opens a path to a blue-chip difference-maker if no trade-down occurs. A mock draft projects wide receiver Jordyn Tyson as a target; Tyson had earlier injury issues but is regarded as a legitimate asset at all three levels of the field.
