Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread

It would be dereliction to say he's the starter. He's QB1 right now because he's the only QB. He will have one - maybe two other QBs to compete with, and he will have to win that competition to be named the starter.

Most of us hope he does because if he doesn't, then we are likely right back where we started.

We now have over 27% of the cap going to the D line. It will be over 30 if they exercise Young's 5th year option.

The Dline is our team identity right now and where the talent is, I don’t mind it.

I don't mind the D-line being the strength of the team, but as is, it doesn't allow a lot of resources to be invested in other important units, such as the O-line, which arguably cost this team several wins last year. If you can't score, it doesn't matter how great your D-line is.

Commanders announce several coaching changes

[MTK]

@granthpaulsen
Sources: Bobby Engram is being hired as the Commanders’ WRs coach.

Eric Bieniemy makes an important hire to his developing staff. Engram was a good NFL player before getting into coaching. He previously coached WRs and TEs in Baltimore and was on Wisconsin’s staff last year.

That name takes me back to my younger days. I like former NFL players as position coaches.

I hate that in your younger days I was already a gray haired middle aged dude with a gut.

I got 40 coming up hot as fuck in June.

I was 27 when he retired, so not really that young, but a lot younger than I am now lol.

Coach Ron Rivera met with John Matsko this morning and informed him the team is moving in a different direction with the OL coaching job, source confirmed

Washington released RB JD McKissic and tendered a qualifying offer to S Jeremy Reaves. Both moves have been expected tho ideally they’d like to sign Reaves to a multi-year deal. Team announced the moves.

Same about McKissic's injuries because when healthy....

[sdskinsfan2001]

Damn, McKissic ditches the Bills to come back to us. Then we cut his ass the next year. The business of football gives zero fucks.
