Commanders 2023 Free Agency Thread

I thought they let JD go because they liked at least either Patterson or Williams.

But Bieniemy could just want 1 of his guys here.

JD had neck issues and he was released due to a failed physical, not much money saved on the cap

I think the mindset is to have two lead backs and to have back ups for each of them.

I think both Patterson and Williams are more in the B-Rob mold, a tough/in-between the tackles RB. We really don't have a back up in the Gibson mold, so maybe that's what they would also want.

Also, I do agree that it could also be EB wanting one of his guys in the RB room.

I feel bad for McKissic. He was extremely valuable to our check-down centric offense. I hope he can play somewhere next year.

I wasn't aware he failed his physical. Best of luck to him.

Did you watch all the Commanders games?

I'm surprised how split we all are on if Brissett is an improvement or not. I'm in the definitely improved camp.

Yes we go to the bar and have wsh/cle/phi/bal on all the tvs next to eachother

Can’t have enough good backs especially to help support a young QB

Keyword backup. I will be distraught if this dude is even talked about as a potential starter. Hence this current 2 day freak out here lol

That was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. I apologize if that post came off a bit dickish.

We'll just have to agree to disagree on Brissett. I think he's better than Heinicke.

I think we all agree, HOWELL WIN THE JOB BABY!!!

can a team win a championship with a average QB with these ingredients??
*strong O line ( given time a average QB can be effective)
*solid Running game ( takes pressure off passing)
* solid WR/TE
*Very Good D ( top 10 D?)
We don’t have a Top level QB .. probably won’t get one this year so what are realistic expectations?

Yes and they have. But obviously a strong quarterback helps. Howell may be one btw. He has never lost a game in the NFL!

I think JD was the 3rd down/pass catching back, but he was injured and now he's gone. I heard somewhere that McKinnon could be in the mix. You got the Robinson/Gibson as main backs, McKinnon as the 3rd down. So either Patterson or Williams may not be around.


Yeah he definitely was. And a damn good one. Was referring to last year with Patterson and Williams. Didn’t know McKinnon was an option- agree with you and Chico though. If that’s the case yeah get him. Keep Williams too. I like him better than Patterson.
