Washington Commanders 2026 roster is light years better than 2024 team

In the offseason, it’s fun to talk about the game on paper – because without the actual games, that’s all we really have. As you all know, I love doing roster analysis. In this article I chose to take a look at how our current roster compared to the one that went 12-5 and made […]

Treylon Burks is a wild card in Washington Commanders’ receiver plans

Treylon Burks came into the NFL with great expectations, so much so that he was described this way heading into the draft.   The Arkansas receiver was considered “A.J. Brown (with more wiggle).”  That’s quite a compliment. Brown’s now a three-time Pro Bowler with more than 1,000 receiving yards in six of his seven seasons, a physical and dominant force in the pattern.   […]

Washington Commanders schedule doesn’t favor a winning season

The NFL schedule has been out for over a week now, and we’ve done a lot of analysis covering a lot of different storylines for the Washington Commanders. They’re coming off a disappointing 5-12 season, that followed a 12-5 season and an appearance in the NFC Championship Game. That led to massive changes to the […]

Odafe Oweh, Sonny Styles among new players to impact Commanders defense

The Commanders simply had to improve their defense. Mostly because it couldn’t have performed worse in 2025.   That unit ranked dead last in yards per game (384.4 ypg), No. 31 in takeaways (10), No. 31 in red-zone defense (67.7%) and No. 27 in scoring defense (26.5 ppg).   That led to a complete overhaul, starting with coordinator Joe Whitt Jr.’s firing after the season. […]

Trey Amos among Commanders’ 2025 NFL draft picks to impact 2026 season

Adam Peters selected five players in the 2025 NFL draft. Commanders selections were lower in each round as a byproduct of the previous season’s trip to the NFC championship game.   Washington’s general manager came away with quality despite that fact, adding players capable of making an instant impact. That happened well beyond No. 29 overall pick Josh Conerly Jr., an offensive tackle […]

Washington Commanders UDFA Spotlight: RB Robert Henry Jr., UTSA

Robert Henry Jr. started his final season at the University of Texas at San Antonio with a strong statement. The fifth-year senior exploded out of the gates with 177 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries, including a 75-yard touchdown run in the season opener versus Texas A&M.

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 […]
