11. Washington: Ahmad Gardner, CB, Cincinnati
If it’s true Washington offered three first-round picks to Seattle for 33-year-old Russell Wilson, then landing 29-year-old Carson Wentz for two third-rounders looks like value. It also means the Commanders won’t be prodded into taking Kenny Pickett with the 11th pick. Brugler scores Gardner as a top-10 talent at 6-foot-3 with 4.41 speed.

Analysis: Kendall Fuller is coming off an impressive season, but after allowing the sixth-most yards per attempt and the fifth-highest opposing quarterback rating in 2021, the Commanders could install Gardner as a complement on the opposite side. It’s also tempting to draft a receiver such as Treylon Burks or Chris Olave. Georgia linebacker Nakobe Dean could be the answer in the middle, but taking him here would be a reach when he’s slotted between 25 and 35. — Taylor

Nakobe Dean = Jamin Davis imo

I think we need a day 1 impact player at 11. Unless a LB is a true stud, I think it takes a few years for a college MLB to be up to speed as an NFL MLB. Edge/rushing LB can play right away but MLB, as weve seen w Davis, is a whole nother league.

Dean did start more games in college but im tepid on going MLB round 1 unless hes a stud.

He reminds me of a more athletic London Fletcher and he is also a leader like London was. I think he would have a Day 1 impact on us.

But I could see not wanting him at 11. Also, would be weird to go LB back to back in round 1. But Dean is a stud imo.

Ive read a few scouting reports on him. Seems like a smaller but more experienced Jamin. Fluid, can go btw tackles or outside, primarily covered backs and in man exclusively, solid tackler, Dick Butkus winner.

Id prefer Devin Lloyd at 11 if we go LB but I dont follow college ball that hard so i just parrot what I hear really

---------------

Skins have a trend going.

2017 - drafted DL first round
2018 - DL first round
2019 - DE first round
2020 - DE first round
2021 - LB first round
2022 - ???????

I like Lloyd too. I would be happy with either one of them. Hell, I guess it's a lock that we pick one now lol. Hopefully they get the right guy.

I say they buck the trend and select an offensive lineman, wide receiver, or trade back - and still select an offensive lineman or wide receiver.

I think Dean is too small for MLB in the NFL. You should check out Devin Lloyd, Christian Harris, Chad Muma, and Troy Andersen. I know the Commanders have interviewed Harris, Muma, and Andersen. I don't know if they have talked to Lloyd. Hopefully they will because Lloyd may be the best MLB prospect in this draft.

Lloyd is also a stud if I had to guess. I need to look at Harris more. I love Muma. I'd be good with him in the 2nd. Would have been jacked up for him in the 3rd, and if he makes it to the 4th, I'll be flabbergasted. If Andersen is available in the 6th or later, that would be a good pick imo. But he changed positions, he played at a smaller school, and we have limited picks. So I think he's a bit of a luxury pick we can't go for (unless we actually do, then he's a stud lol).

I am warming to the idea of cornerback in the first, looking at the cap position it may be wise forward thinking with regards to the amount of money our 2 CBs are making next year that would allow them to move on from one or both

Was reading this article about the Adams trade and it looks at team draft capital for the draft:
