""Washington threw a bunch of resources at the pass rush in free agency, which made this pick a bit surprising. But clearly, [Adam] Peters was tempted by the notion of unearthing a DPR down in Round 5.""
""[Joshua] Josephs has the length and explosiveness that you want off the edge, but he was never able to put it all together at Tennessee.""
""The Commanders see something in Josephs that others passed up. His burst off the snap is first-class, and even though he isn't the most physically imposing, he shows versatility in his athleticism.""
""Josephs will be coming to Washington with a big chip on his shoulder. The edge force expected to hear his name called much sooner, but it didn't.""
The Washington Commanders revamped their edge-rushing unit, prioritizing improvements under general manager Adam Peters. They added Joshua Josephs, a rookie pass-rusher, during the draft, who was projected to be a Day 2 pick but fell to Day 3. Analysts believe Josephs could be a significant addition if he develops his skills. His physical attributes, including length and explosiveness, make him a valuable asset, especially in the new defensive scheme. Josephs enters the team with motivation to prove his worth after being overlooked in the draft.
