Armstrong’s new role was detailed by ESPN’s John Keim on a recent episode of ‘The John Keim Report.’ As Keim put it, “on the roster, they list Dorance Armstrong as a defensive end, but I was talking to, you know,...

As a follow-up to the top 10 list of players we put out over the last few weeks, I wanted to give you my top 13 players on our squad, and my reasoning behind why I ranked each player where I did. These rankings did factor into the overall rankings you saw over the last few weeks, but Scott Bair promised you a Tyler’s Take with my thoughts – so here it is!

On Monday, we got the news via NFL insiders (no official announcement yet from the Commanders) that veteran CB Rasul Douglas has agreed to terms with Washington on a 1-year deal for 2026.
In some ways, as a 30-yr-old player, Douglas runs slightly counter to the ‘younger, faster’ mantra of the 2026 offseason, but in July, he...

The majority of undrafted free agent profiles end with a common refrain.
“His most likely landing spot is the practice squad, where he can develop and compete for a roster spot next year.”
For the players discussed in this article, 2026 is their “next year.” Historically, 28% of UDFAs make the same team’s Week 1 practice squad. The number has increased to over 32% since the inception of the 2020 collective bargaining agreement, which changed the practice squad rules. Undrafted free agents are now being offered larger guarantees to sign with teams, and landing them has become a major part...

As the legendary pass rusher tells it, he received two contract offers for the 2025 campaign. One was from the Washington Commanders, where he ultimately signed and racked up nine sacks across 17 games.

The depth in the secondary for the Washington Commanders has been a talking point all offseason and it is finally being addressed by GM Adam Peters. Per Adam Schefter, free agent Rasul Douglas is expected to sign a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders.

Washington doesn’t need Joshua Josephs to become a star in Year 1. Josephs is unquestionably starting his NFL journey behind Washington’s veteran pass rushers on the depth chart, but if the fifth-round rookie can develop into a reliable situational pass rusher, he could solve one of the Commanders’ biggest weaknesses from a season ago. The expectations for a late draft pick should be reasonably low, but for a team that was among the worst in the league in pressure rate last season, anyone capable of creating disruption will have an opportunity to earn snaps under new defensive coordinator Daronte Jones,...

I legit had an opinion piece in the hopper about why the Commanders should ignore all the social media nonsense and sign receiver Brandon Aiyuk when the 49ers release him.
This morning, I hit delete.
I think we’re done here.
Overpay for Stefon Diggs. Maybe $10-15 million for one year. All guaranteed. It’s okay. The Commanders can afford it from a cap perspective. They need another receiver. Even the Treylon Burks truthers must agree with that.
For those who truly enjoyed their Fourth of July – a sacred holiday for those who cover the NFL, because the life interrupts every...
