BGO Blind Pig: Commanders CB Draft Prospects

[Boone]

With the departure of Kendall Fuller, the Commanders have some glaring needs in the defensive backfield. We take a look at some Day 2 and beyond prospects who might have the traits Quinn and Whitt Jr. may be looking for...

From what I have read this is a weak draft for corner.

I wouldn’t do more here than a Day 3 pick or two depending.

If we get the QB, OT and are set at WR we can take a cover corner at the top in 2025.

2019 was a poor year for quarterbacks and all I see now is three guys in Murray, Jones and Haskins that didn’t do anything to change that evaluation in retrospect.

Better to not try and force early picks in a thin class.

Max Melton may be worth a late 1st - definitely will go early day two imho. There are some very good ones, I just don't think it's a draft chock full of sure-fire CBs. I hope they are looking BPA and not filling perceived holes.

I keep hearing how we have to take an OT with our 2nd pick. There are a ton of good OTs in this draft, but I don't want the 12th best one being taken with our 2nd pick. Pick a guy that you didn't imagine would be available there.

Peters has all but telegraphed the move for OT by doing little at the position in free agency or via trade.

With a rookie quarterback getting the line in good shape is job #1.

We took DB with both top picks last year, really can’t afford to use #36 on a CB this time around in a draft with this type of OT and WR quality.

No doubt additional vets will come available in the second wave of free agency.

It’s still dependent on what happens in front of us Bulldog. I promise you they don’t have ‘Any OT’ on the draft board at 36

There is always the secret weapon that is Braden Daniels. 😉

He's so secret most of the coaching staff had no idea who he was when he came to the Park. The new security guard told Daniels all of the deliveries were made in the back. Daniels replied that he was a Washington player. The guard laughed and had to call upstairs
