Barring any major surprises, Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters will have six draft picks and a lot of salary cap room with which to rebuild his roster this offseason. Even if the Commanders hold onto defensive lineman Daron Payne, they figure to have a very healthy cap situation for 2026. A new contract for left tackle Laremy Tunsil could free up even more in the short term.

One of the higher-profile names is Deebo Samuel Sr. The Commanders gave up a fifth-round selection to the San Francisco 49ers for the versatile wide receiver during the offseason. Peters knew what he could bring to the table with renewed focus, and he was right. He was the one constant amid the constant turmoil, although it's also clear that his days of All-Pro-caliber production are over.

Biadasz is a solid player. He's been a dependable presence over the last two seasons, communicating pre-snap and effectively blending run blocking and pass protection. While the former Wisconsin standout isn't a world-beater by any stretch, the Commanders could do a lot worse. At 28, Biadasz has a lot of good football left. Dan Quinn knows him well from their time together on the Dallas Cowboys, and he made the lineman one of his most pressing targets in 2024 free agency.

[Joe] Whitt's defense looked completely overmatched as early as Week 2 in their loss at Green Bay. They couldn't cover anyone, especially a TE with Whitt leading the defense. The defense in 2024 was never 'good' either. It was so bad this season that Dan Quinn had to cut loose his friend, Whitt.

Dan Quinn is betting on youth to help the Washington Commanders' offense improve next season. Promoting three in-house coaches to bigger roles is a significant risk. Skepticism from fans and analysts was no doubt expected, but there is genuine conviction behind the moves heading into a pivotal offseason. Kliff Kingsbury didn't agree with how Quinn wanted to take the offense forward, and he was let go.

That was the price for progress, and it worked right out of the gate. Things look much more uncertain now, but the choice not to offer safety Kamren Curl a new contract in 2024 is probably one that Peters would like to have back. Curl emerged from a seventh-round pick into a highly capable starter. Peters didn't think his production warranted another financial commitment, and he signed for the Los Angeles Rams in free agency.

The Washington Commanders are in the midst of some substantial changes. Not entirely surprising when one considers the wreck that eventually became their 2025 season, but it's enough to put everyone on edge regarding their fortunes heading into the 2026 campaign. General manager Adam Peters has some tough choices to make. However, a respected Commanders insider believes there is one simple roster decision staring Washington's front-office leader in the face. And it's something fans have been shouting about for months.

Von Miller left the Washington Commanders wanting another go-around with the franchise in 2026. The aging edge rusher thought he was joining a Super Bowl contender, and even though things didn't work out that way, he outlined his desire to help get this storied club back on track. It didn't take long for that to change, which could hint that a difficult conversation has already taken place between Miller and those in positions of power.

Built in the late 1700s and dubbed the "Halcyon House," the Georgetown property at 3400 Prospect St., NW, has just become the most expensive residential real estate sale in DC's history, according to Compass. The buyer is Joshua Harris, the owner of the Washington Commanders, and his wife, Marjorie, according to the Wall Street Journal. The news comes after the Commanders recently unveiled the design for their new stadium.

With a ring of massive columns and seating for more than 70,000 people, President Donald Trump may be getting the football stadium of his dreams. Renderings have just been released of the proposed design for a new stadium for the Washington Commanders NFL team, and the aesthetic is right in line with an architectural style the Trump administration has been championing with increasing passion.
