"Daylen Everette has the size and length that defensive coordinator Daronte Jones could want in his boundary cornerbacks. His 9.88 Relative Athletic Score ranked 35th out of 2,822 cornerbacks since 1987."
"Everette needs to improve his instincts and make technical refinements, especially when working with his back to the football. Being more aware of space is something else the defensive back must improve to fully maximize his outstanding athletic attributes."
"Most analysts project Everette to go at some stage on Day 2. The second round might be a little too high, but teams are always willing to bet in this sort of athleticism when it comes to the crunch."
The Commanders have six picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, limiting their margin for error but allowing flexibility after acquiring 12 new players in free agency. Visits to evaluate prospects are underway, with a focus on cornerback Daylen Everette, whose athleticism has raised his draft stock. Everette possesses desirable physical traits but needs to improve his instincts and technical skills. Analysts predict he will be selected on Day 2, making him a potential target for the Commanders if they choose a different position in the first round.
