Why the Slide? Illinois DT Jer’Zhan “Johnny” Newton

NFL team intel from WalterFootball’s Charlie Campbell

In this series, I am highlighting Charlie Campbell’s reporting on why prospects slid in the 2024 NFL draft. Campbell is well connected with NFL team sources. He draws on this inside information to shed light on how NFL teams viewed prospects who were drafted later than expected every year in his Why the Slide? and Why Undrafted? series.

This year I thought it would be informative to recap his reports on players of particular interest to Commanders’ fans. The first report featured CB Cooper DeJean, who slid all the way out of the...

Why the Slide? Iowa CB Cooper DeJean

NFL team intel from Walterfootball’s Charlie Campbell

In his first draft with the Commanders, Adam Peters raised some eyebrows by picking three players in the third round well ahead of where the media experts had expected them to be drafted. Those choices were reminiscent of a long-standing pattern in the 49ers’ drafts, raising questions about whether our new GM had picked up a bad habit of reaching in the draft from his former team.

Peters also pulled off a major steal, when Illinois DT Johnny Newton fell to the Commanders’ first pick in the second round. Both Peters and the...

What are the odds? The Washington Commanders open the season as road underdogs against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

What are the odds? The Washington Commanders open the season as road underdogs against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Home favorites to start the year

The Washington Commanders finished last season with a 4-13 record, and they “earned” the No. 2 overall pick, selecting LSU QB Jayden Daniels. Washington has gone through massive changes since the end of the season. Managing partner Josh Harris hired Adam Peters to be the franchise’s new general manager, and they hired Dan Quinn as the team’s new head coach. The Commanders have gone through a major roster turnover, signing 20+ free agents, drafting nine players, and signing 12 UDFAs.

The Washington Commanders open up the 2024 season as 3.5-point road underdogs against the...
