Examining the curious case of Washington Commanders CB Mike Sainristil

Mike Sainristil’s rookie season in 2024 was a year to remember. The next one, in 2025, was a year to forget. How quickly the tides can turn for a player, but such is life in the NFL. And with that I give you a key discussion point heading into the 2026 campaign — the curious […]

Why Washington Commanders should add veteran pass rusher A.J. Epenesa

Editor’s note: The Commanders remain flush with salary-cap space entering the meat of this offseason program. That doesn’t mean general manager Adam Peters has to spend, but he’s got options should he feel the need to fortify his already revamped roster. We’ll do some spending for him, suggesting some street free agents who could help Washington in this weeklong series. We’ve contemplated adding receiver Stefon Diggs and cornerback Rasul Douglas. In […]

Why James Laurinaitis believed Sonny Styles could be a great linebacker

Former eight-year NFL linebacker James Laurinaitis has been the linebackers coach for the Ohio State Buckeyes since 2024. Laurinaitis’ perspective as a highly successful NFL linebacker helped mold Sonny Styles, who transitioned from safety to the second level in his first year as Buckeyes linebackers coach.

Washington Commanders UDFA Spotlight: WR Chris Hilton Jr., LSU

When will Chris Hilton Jr. stay healthy? This is the question LSU fans asked every summer of his college career. It was a valid one, as the 6-foot, 188-pound wide receiver missed multiple games over the course of his five-year tenure at the college. As a freshman in 2021, Hilton suffered a torn meniscus in […]

Why the Commanders should sign Rasul Douglas to compete with Mike Sainristil

Cornerback seemed like a clear and obvious Commanders need heading into the NFL Draft. General manager Adam Peters didn’t take one with any of his six selections.   We may have had a different discussion had the Kansas City Chiefs not traded up to take LSU’s Mansoor Delane at No. 6 overall, but we’ll never know what Peters would have done.   Delane or Sonny Styles?

How Nick Cross, Washington Commanders safeties fit Daronte Jones scheme

Washington’s defense ranked in the lower third of the NFL last year, necessitating the mid-season demotion, and eventual firing of DC Joe Whitt Jr. at end of the season.

Why Washington Commanders should sign veteran receiver Stefon Diggs

Editor’s note: Most of Washington’s offseason moves have been made. General manager Adam Peters may have a few more tricks up his sleeve, especially with a salary-cap cushion available to him. We at Hogs Haven have some suggestions about how to spend his extra cash in this “Commanders should sign” series. In this installment, we make a case for receiver Stefon Diggs  […]

Why Commanders fans expect improvement in Washington 2026 NFL season

The results are in. Commanders fans are optimtistic about a return to prominence after a disappointing 5-12 campaign in 2025.   Does that mean we all expect a return to the NFC championship game? Probably not.   Our poll results indicate that Commanders optimism is appropriately measured, with a belief Washington will be better than last season’s 5-12 disaster without assuming they’re headed for a division crown.   That’s appropriate, even […]
