"At the same time, nothing should be completely ruled out at this stage. Nobody expected the Commanders to acquire wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. for a fifth-round pick. Nobody expected Washington to land five-time Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil from the Houston Texans. If Peters believes there is a move out there that could help this franchise get back on track, he won't hesitate to strike with conviction."
"NFL analyst's trade idea for T.J. Watt doesn't match the Commanders' current outlook Jarrett Bailey of Sporting News thought calling the Pittsburgh Steelers about T.J. Watt could be precisely what head coach Dan Quinn is looking for. There are concerns, and it's a lot of money to take on, but the projected second-round pick might cost to acquire the four-time All-Pro may be a risk worth taking."
Adam Peters has been aggressive in trading since becoming general manager, previously acquiring Deebo Samuel and Laremy Tunsil for modest returns. Washington finished with five wins in 2025 and needs to get younger and more explosive, especially on defense. New defensive coordinator Daronte Jones will want a productive, proven edge rusher to implement his scheme effectively. Jarrett Bailey proposed pursuing T.J. Watt from the Pittsburgh Steelers, suggesting a 2027 second-round pick could entice Pittsburgh. Watt has 115 career sacks but will be 32, showed decline after injury, and would carry significant salary and draft-capital risks.
