""I would argue that Antonio Williams is the best route runner in this class, in terms of the in and out of breaks. He does the dirty work over the middle. He accelerates out of the quick slant stuff. He gets himself open with his footwork and his precision, and he's crafty.""
""I see some Ladd McConkey. Ladd may have a little bit more juice, but not a lot. I like the tough guy. I like the routes. I like that he just separates. I like that he catches the ball in some tough spots. I think he's got a chance to come in the league and get 70 to 80 catches right away.""
The Washington Commanders successfully navigated the 2026 NFL Draft, focusing on defense and offense with key selections. General manager Adam Peters capitalized on opportunities, notably drafting linebacker Sonny Styles in the first round. The team also selected wide receiver Antonio Williams, who has drawn significant praise for his route-running skills and potential impact. Analysts project Williams could achieve 70 to 80 catches as a rookie, marking him as a potential steal for the Commanders, especially given his previous top 15 pick status before injuries affected his college performance.
