The Lists Roll On Without the Commanders

The Lists Roll On Without the Commanders

ESPN completes the release of their rankings of top 10 players at each position leaving just one player in a top 10, one in honorable mention, and a couple others receiving votes while the NFL top 100 has reached number 61 without mention of a Commander. It's clear the Commanders don't have a ton of top end talent, but do they still have enough to turn things around from a dismal 2025? Then, we recap episodes 4 and 5 of Quarterback and catch up on a couple quick news items.

QBs and Netflix

Netflix has released season 3 of "Quarterback" featuring Jayden Daniels. We talk a little bit about what I've seen in the first three episodes (no spoilers) and look forward to what's coming in the back half of the season. Then, we talk through Terry's place on ESPN's top 10 WR list and the latest from Jeremy Fowler on Washington's WR search. We wrap up the show with thoughts on David Blough's interview with Ari Meirov and the news that Commanders license plates will soon be available in DC.

WRs and YouTube

Finally! A Washington player cracks a top 10 at their position. Laremy Tunsil was voted the number 5 tackle in the league according to NFL GMs, Coaches and Scouts. Jayden misses the top 10 on the QBs list but we talk through both his and Tunsil's appearances in this series. Then we get into the NFL top 100 as voted by NFL players, and YouTube exploding with videos from WRs.

The Commander's Best Edge, DT, CB, TE, and RB.

ESPN has been releasing rankings of the top 10 players at each position as voted by NFL scouts and personnel execs and a Commander has yet to show up in any way on a single list. In some ways that's not surprising, it can be hard to know who their best players even are at each position. In this episode we take a shot at determining that, and quickly touch on the announcement that they'll be retiring John Riggins' #44 this season.

Changes in the Front Office

Earlier this week it was announced that Commanders executive Scott Fitterer would be leaving the organization after two seasons. To replace Fitterer, Washington announced the hire of Demetrius Washington who has served as the assistant GM and VP of player personnel for the Vikings over the course of the last few seasons. We talk a little about the new hire and what he hopes to bring to Washington. We also discuss Von Miller's second thoughts on joining the Commanders last season, and Dyami Brown's YouTube channel.
