"The Washington Commanders have run their well pretty dry when it comes to trade expenditure in recent months. That doesn't mean general manager Adam Peters won't make another daring move if he believes it can benefit the team's chances when the playoffs arrive. Getting into the postseason will be tough. The NFC looks a lot stronger this season. The Commanders are dealing with some troubling injury problems, although the likes of Jayden Daniels and Sam Cosmi are gearing up for their imminent returns."
"It's tough seeing the Commanders giving up more draft picks after the trades for Deebo Samuel and Laremy Tunsil. But Washington needs a running back after trading Brian Robinson Jr. to San Francisco and losing Austin Ekeler to injury for the season. [Tony] Pollard, 28, could form a strong backfield with rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt. Pollard has rushed 68 times for 261 yards and one touchdown this season."
The Washington Commanders have limited remaining trade capital after recent major transactions. General manager Adam Peters remains willing to make aggressive roster moves if they improve playoff chances. The team faces a tougher path to the postseason with a stronger NFC and multiple injury issues, though Jayden Daniels and Sam Cosmi are nearing returns. The running back room is thin following the Brian Robinson Jr. trade and Austin Ekeler's season-ending injury. A recommendation emerged to pursue Tennessee's Tony Pollard, with a possible fifth-round trade to pair Pollard with rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt.
