    As mentioned I wouldn't say he played really well, there are also strong regression chances for him. His contested catch rate was abnormally high compared to the rest of his career. His separation score was (I believe) pretty low, but that data was behind a paywall. If I remember right, his...

    And now we know that's why they aren't doing Diggs. They are logjammed at Slot with FA Chig, rookie Antonio, 2nd year Lane, and 3rd year McCaffrey. Kliff Kingsbury is gone, so the Lane/McCaffrey experiment as an Outside WR is over. They're back to what they were doing best in college, which was...

    Devils Advocate here, maybe the Commanders also (like the Patriots) view Diggs as slot only, and think they're already set at slot with Chig and Antonio. They're still looking for another outside receiver. Because otherwise, yeah, it seems like Diggs would improve things.

    You have it backwards, his situation is a bit more unique. Most of the time when NFL players want leverage, they "Hold Out". But Aiyuk's situation is different from most NFL players. This is a rare case where he needs to "Hold In" as it were. He has absolutely zero leverage by staying away. He...

    Who will be the 'breakout' player in 2026?

    But you can also use potential for talented players who are producing but look like they could produce even more. Sometimes their conditions prevent them from a huge statistical jump. Take Tom Brady in 2001-2006. Won Superbowls, but wasn't a dominant producer. He suddenly got Wes Welker and...

    Who will be the 'breakout' player in 2026?

    Another vote for Sainristil here. I think this new defense is really playing to his strengths. I'm excited to see what I hope is a big season.

    Maybe. I'm going from reading reports of the Flores scheme with the Vikings. Daronte Jones could add some tweaks or lay off some of the methods Flores used. Keep in mind I can't remember if I watched film of the Vikings to verify it, so I'm going off of what I read for how the IDL for the...

    2026 NFL Draft Impressions / Changes

    That's basically just a trade betting on the 2027 draft class being so much deeper than the 2026 one. We had pick #147, if they pick around the same spot as next year it's roughly pick #130-ish. That is a bit little to lose a year of developing a prospect, unless you truly believe 2027 depth...

    The 2027 Draft Thread

    Yeah, I'm really curious about seeing him in a different offense. Agree with the things you mention. Supposedly his measurements are 6'3 on the dot and 210. His leaping ability is absolutely insane, and he's a natural hands catcher in that he'd prefer to attack the ball in the air than wait for...

    Yeah, I'm also surprised. I don't think I've heard of him connected to any team yet. I think a few have come out and said they're set already and aren't looking to add more pieces which is a polite 'no'.

    They've been ready, in fact, they've already moved on from him. They put him on the DNR list last season. Doesn't get more "moved on" than that as far as they're concerned, unless he actually shows up this summer.

    Commanders Draft Video dropped. They did a much better job hiding the board and any movement on it instead of showing lots of hints like in the 2024 draft video. #71 - Looks like we tried to trade down from #71, but nothing was good so they went with the best offensive weapon on the board for...

    It's just too hard to tell from a clip like that. Here's what it looked like Jayden did. Ball is hiked and he's looking straight ahead to see the defense rotating (I'm assuming) Looks right to a read Looks left to a read (this is an in-breaking route) Looks straight ahead again at the throwing...

    The league has gone through phases of drafting bunches of safeties in the 1st round, the problem is most of them bust. It's just a hard position to project well. Last year had 1 first rounder safety, he underwhelmed, especially in comparison to safeties drafted in the 2nd & 3rd rounds of the...

    It would be awesome if Newton does break out, but this defensive scheme is supposed to be a little unkind to IDL getting stats. The best shot for him is through cleanup sacks. Javon Hargrave and Jon Allen are older so it's expected, but both of them had their worst stats-per-game (QB hits...

    Historically speaking. It is uncommon for a Year 3 WR to break out, but it's happened enough that it can't be ruled out. One problem for Luke though are that his only multi-catch games (3 of them) last season were with Mariota. 2 of them had Terry, but Terry also got hurt halfway through those...

    Daronte Jones and the Defensive Staffing Thread

    That is interesting. Even if Amik gets all the primary Nickel DB reps. There's still something for an extra Nickel in this defense. That is if they are plus tacklers and plus blitzers. Daronte Jones needs his DB's that play a bit closer to the formation (Nickel, SS, etc) to be aggressive when...

    I think we all wish that. Unfortunately the deep post safety is one of the harder positions to project from college to NFL.

    But KDawg is referring to post safety, or single high. Yeah we've got bodies that can do other safety rolls. But the Cover 1/3 style coverages with a lone deeper safety is definitely a question mark
