"The Washington Commanders have a lot to get through on the personnel side this offseason. Much of the focus centers on the defensive overhaul expected once a new coordinator is hired, but general manager Adam Peters cannot overlook the offensive weapons around Jayden Daniels before a crucial third year for the dynamic quarterback. There are a lot of unknowns here, too. Terry McLaurin will be the focal point, and hopefully, he can stay healthy next time around. Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane are exceptional returners but remain unknown quantities in the passing attack. After that, the cupboard is bare unless extensions are agreed upon."
"One of the most pressing topics is the future of Deebo Samuel Sr. The versatile wideout proved to be a useful addition for nothing more than a fifth-round selection. However, he is on the wrong side of 30, and giving him another deal won't be cheap. Keeping him around makes sense for the right price. At the same time, the All-Pro knows that this is his final opportunity to gain a lucrative deal either in Washington or elsewhere."
"Romeo Doubs' rookie deal with the Green Bay Packers is up. He ended on a high note with a sensational display in their wild-card round playoff defeat to the Chicago Bears. Even so, it wasn't hard to read between the lines of his latest Instagram post, which seemed like a montage of his time with the NFC North club before taking his chances elsewhere."
The Commanders face significant offseason personnel work, needing a defensive overhaul and attention to offensive weapons surrounding Jayden Daniels ahead of his third year. Terry McLaurin remains the primary receiving threat if healthy, while Luke McCaffrey and Jaylin Lane offer special-teams value but uncertain passing-game roles. Beyond those players, the roster lacks proven receiving depth unless contract extensions occur. Deebo Samuel's future is a critical decision due to age and cost, with his next contract opportunity potentially his last to secure a lucrative deal. Romeo Doubs could be a free-agent target after his rookie deal expired and a strong playoff showing.
