How aggressive will Commanders’ NFL Draft trade efforts be to add to barren pick chest?

The Washington Commanders have a few holes to fill on their roster, and luckily, they have the NFL Draft to fix those issues. With the No. 7 pick, the Commanders can go in several directions on how they want to improve the team, but it’s what they can do to get a Day 2 pick, which can improve their depth even more, according to ESPN’s John Keim.

“A team that is willing to trade up calls them, allowing the Commanders to recoup a Day 2 draft pick,” Keim wrote. “Washington enters the draft with six picks but has only two in the first three rounds to replenish a roster that badly needs youth. It’s doubtful the Commanders will want to move back more than a few spots — there are players they like who could help them and will be available in the top 12. But with only one QB expected to be drafted in the top 10, GM Adam Peters said at the combine that it will be difficult to entice any team to move up.”

There are a few positions that the Commanders will need to hone in on during the draft, which is why they want to find a way to get more picks.

“The Commanders need to be precise. Wide receiver and cornerback are two positions the team is expected to address with its top-100 picks. And like John said, Washington wouldn’t mind trading back to grab an extra pick or two,” Jordan Reid wrote.

Injuries and lack of depth hurt the Commanders last season, and they’re hoping not to be in that situation again next season. The one thing is that Jayden Daniels needs to stay healthy in order for them to bounce back.
