    It’s a whole different conversation, but the way private equity is ruining youth sports across the country is also going to have very negative outcomes for every major sport. We’re going backwards if anything, before we can go forwards. Not just in soccer

    2026 Commanders Training Camp

    For sure. I don’t get his argument because it’s not just the guys who bulk up and make it to the league, it’s also the lost potential of every single soccer-sized athletic body in America who plays American football instead, couldn’t make the league or D1, but never even looked at a soccer ball...

    2026 Commanders Training Camp

    Yeah, people specialize over time and are definitely more gifted at some things than others, but I always really bought into the idea that (besides America not having much of a training program in place for soccer), the main reason our enormous country struggles more (historically) with the ol’...

    The Front Office: Adam Peters and Roster Construction

    It’s not about whether the best case scenario exists and is possible. That’s always the case, and yet the best teams stack talent and try to build in failsafes. Not doing something because the best case scenario is technically possible is a reckless way to build a team, and frankly it borders on...

    The committee at work, who needs WR help when you’ve got these behemoths

    The 2026 Free Agency Thread

    We have some of the worst (or charitably: least proven) WR and RB rooms in the league, but luckily we’ve spent three years and tons of capital to build a good-not-great OL without a functional Center. I don’t find that to be a compelling argument personally

    BGO Blind Pig: Washington Commanders 2026 Training Camp

    Not really, none of those guys have to make the team (though most will, obviously) based on resources expended. You need bodies at RB for training camp and preseason, and we likely need to roster 3-4, and only JCM was still under contract. We added what we needed to add at almost the absolute...

    BGO Blind Pig: Washington Commanders 2026 Training Camp

    I don’t really get this. We brought in a 6th round rookie, a vet min Ford, and a 1 yr/$2M Rachaad White who wanted to be here more than elsewhere due to Jayden. $400k guaranteed for him. Those are very minor additions that most teams make each offseason to their RB room at a minimum. Don’t...

    note: I have no power or say-so here, I’m just an asshole If you want to submit yourself to the psychic damage of reading what idiots have to say all day, that’s up to you. Don’t bring it here to force the same punishment on us. People here have decided to be selective about whose opinions...

    It was a rough foundation to build from, true. AP also seems to have done himself no favors and squandered a ton of valuable draft capital in 2024, but we’ll have a better idea this season, going into year 3. Those who say it’s too early to tell and the process seems good, are more correct...

    I’ll feel this way when I gain the confidence that this FO is correctly identifying the BPA some of the time. Haven’t seen it much yet, but they start hitting bigger on some of these picks and I’ll start believing I agree they identified Conerly as their BPA at that spot

    You’re not wrong but I love how we’re always hoping our staff will be scared out of their own passivity at certain positions lol

    Entering his 4th year at only 24 years old, had college pedigree and began to break out as a pro, but outside WR additions had him maybe available…still think this would’ve been a good move. Amidst camp reports that the Maye/AJB chemistry hasn’t progressed quite yet, could see them slow-play...

    It’s a nothing statement, we know he tried and failed to spend a bazillion dollars to improve WR

    2026 Commanders Training Camp

    Evidence? My eyes. I didn’t say he has poor vision, he’s not a disaster. I can tell you from watching him play that it’s not a great strength of his though, he’s average at best, and if it was better his explosiveness might be special. As it stands he really needs to brush up the rest of his...
