OT: 2024 Washington Commanders thread: change we can believe in!

[Roric]

And we won't miss the fumbles.

What type of runner is that RB they picked up?

One of the best receiving backs in the game. And thats exactly how he should be used. The rookie qb will love him

Harrison #3?

Harrison #3?

I don't think so. JB's not a franchise guy, and at 3 there'll be a franchise guy available. Probably a move to ensure they don't have to force the new kid in week 1.

Harrison #3?

More like maye…who many think needs to sit for at least a year to develop. That's why I'm wondering whether maybe NE has not-public info suggesting Maye will be available at 3. I'd be surprised if Brissett is getting huge $$, and seems like Washington had good experience with him.

Just speculating of course, but let's say Commanders drafted Maye; would give them 2 QBs with Air Raid experience for Kingsbury's Don't-Call-It-Air-Raid-! offense, if they keep Howell. If they go with Daniels (not as similar to Brissett), that gives Kingsbury something a lot more different than Howell to work with. Also keep seeing reports that Peters/Quinn/etc 'heavily investigating' Daniels.

So I'm wondering whether Brissett and/or NE had info suggesting Daniels to Commanders.

Does beg the question who our 3rd QB is going to be. No way we go into the season with a top-drafted rookie and a single back-up w/ one year of starting experience. Jacoby has too much left in him and there are too many opty's out there for him to stay here as a no-chance starter -- we need a lesser-Jacoby as the font of wisdom and break-glass-in-case-of-emergency guy.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Isnt 3rd QB on the practice team or did the NFL change the rule after the 49ers ran out of them in a playoff game

 

[kicksavedave]

Exactly. Build from the middle out.

Psyched.

And we won't miss the fumbles.

What type of runner is that RB they picked up?

Someone ran the numbers. Ekeler has one fumble per 68 touches over the last 4 years. Gibson has.. cough, one fumble per 68 touches over the last 4 years. Different talent levels, but same fumble rate... ugh.

That'll be ENOUGH of that talk!

legatron lol

 

[hockeykicker]

I know he missed this but jeez that leg strength

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

He has pretty good stats and and is also a punter if I read that correctly

Correct, he did both at Temple in college

That's a big deal if we get an extra roster spot

They aren't replacing tress way with a guy who hasn't punted in 12 years

 

[Roric]

If peters managed to snag higgins or aiyuk next idk what i’d do

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

another 1

 

[Bananas]

It’s clear Peters has been able to easily ascertain where we suck lol. That’s a lot of deft hole plugging on Day 1.

 

[RedRocking]

Sam Darnold in the mix. Peters has the 49ers connection.

Maybe ok as a vet/bridge guy. Potentially a good match for Maye.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

No interest in Darlond.

 

[usiel]

No interest in Darlond.

I hope this was intentional, heh.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

any updates on our cap space? I could not find anything updated with our new FA

 

[RedRocking]

Tyrod Taylor to the Jets. That could have been a cool option if we go with Daniels. Marcus Mariota is another name out there with Darnold.

BTW Darnold is only 26?! Seems like he’s been knocking around the league for years. I thought he was WAY older, lol. He probably still wants to start, so Minny might make more sense.

I still think his experience as a high pick would help our 2OA rookie. And stylistically it works for Maye.
