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

Terry, as a #1, is in the 2nd tier. He's not up there with Chase, Lamb, Jefferson, AJ Brown, on a pure dominance level. Guys in the past like Calvin Johnson or Cooper Kupp when he was healthy. So yeah, maybe we need a 1B, someone to take the pressure off TM. Because when teams focus on shutting down TM, they can do it, too frequently and we have little way of making them pay for it.

Hell, we could really use a dynamic TE like Kelce or Brock Bowers. Sinnott surely ain't it, yet. Unsure if he ever will be more than a swiss army knife type TE.

So you are saying if they had as few more all pro / future hall of famer types on offense they would likely be better? Interesting…

I’d go after Tee Higgins. But I’ve been vocal about that.

Those that think “we have enough at WR” were drinking the Kool-Aid, IMO. Especially w injuries being so prevalent on the NFL landscape.

That said, of the WR’s that were dealt? Seemingly very few (any?) have had an impact — yet.

This team still needs like 4-5 new starting players (OL, WR, TE, DE, CB). Not impossible, and far better than the 15 or so it needed last off season.

But the work is not even close to being done. And we are seeing that.

Higgins is very likely going to be a FA after the season so if Peters wants him, with the idea that guys want to come play with Daniels, they should have a darn good shot at getting him.

The question is with his durability concerns over the last couple seasons is he going to be worth what he’s going to demand? Regardless, I don’t have a doubt they will add a significant upgrade to the receiving corps in the offseason.

There is going to be a bidding war for Higgins. I could see teams like the Pats, and Chargers also involved. So, will be interesting to see if those reports about guys wanting to play with JD are true. The price tag might get too high though - and as you said, durability is a big question mark with him.

Well yeah . We're a borderline playoff team right now, with massive turnover from the team that lost 12 of its last 13 games last year. If we want to be a SB contender, the needs are there. This roster isn't going 14-3 and making deep playoff runs. The Chiefs, Bills, Lions and Eagles have the talent in the key places that we lack.

Its still basically year 1 of Peters, so you know, lets continue to give him time. Plus, our rookie QB is the real deal, expecting him to never struggle at all, because of his hot start, was never reality. I'm picturing him as a 3rd year guy, with better talent around him, just destroying the league.

This would work much better with a WFT logo instead of the Redskins logo.... except, derp, its the same Commanders logo! Snyder and his crack marketing team!
