"Sonny [Styles] just makes the most sense with this pick with Dan Quinn. They've had Bobby Wagner over the last couple of years, but they needed somebody fast. With the division they're in, with Saquon [Barkley], I think he can develop into a serious linebacker."
"How is Dan Quinn going to use him? Is he going to be more of a cover guy? Is he going to be more downhill? They've got [Frankie] Luvu, too, so Luvu and him are going to be a great tandem."
"Styles was reportedly his guy, which was a sentiment echoed across the franchise. There is a mix of the old-school and the new era with the incoming rookie, and the coach is probably salivating at the prospect of getting to work."
Sonny Styles was selected by the Washington Commanders as the seventh overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, receiving widespread acclaim. General manager Adam Peters expressed surprise at landing Styles, who was expected to be a top-five pick. Micah Parsons praised Styles as an ideal fit for head coach Dan Quinn, highlighting his speed and potential as a linebacker. Parsons noted the importance of Styles' development and the exciting possibilities for his role within the team's defense alongside Frankie Luvu.
