"When Peters completed the trade for Tunsil, it was the clearest of several signs that he was pushing all his chips in on 2025. The blindside enforcer had been selected to the Pro Bowl in five of his six seasons with the Houston Texans. He was 30 years old and still playing at a very high level, but the AFC South club seemed eager to rebuild its offensive line with younger players."
"Peters gave up a lot for his new left tackle. He dropped back one round in the 2025 NFL Draft and also surrendered a seventh-round pick. But the major cost would come in 2026. The front-office leader included his second- and fourth-round picks in the deal. He had already acquired veterans Marshon Lattimore and Deebo Samuel Sr., and was about to sign or re-sign another raft of veteran players to bolster the roster."
Seth Walder ranked Laremy Tunsil No. 24 among 2025 MVP candidates, making him the second offensive lineman on the list behind Garrett Bolles. Washington acquired Tunsil via a trade that cost a 2025 draft-round drop plus a seventh-round pick and included 2026 second- and fourth-round picks. General manager Adam Peters had already added veterans such as Marshon Lattimore and Deebo Samuel Sr. Most other offseason moves did not pan out, but Tunsil delivered a solid, steady presence at left tackle. According to Pro Football Focus, Tunsil graded as Washington's second-best player on the season, trailing only Terry McLaurin.
