Commanders 2024 Free Agency Thread

I'm not missing the point. I understand there are always more Tackles drafted than Tight Ends. It's not apples to apples...I was simply making a comparison - this is a deep class for Tackles, and this is not a deep class for Tight Ends.

Again I agree that it's a deeper draft for OTs than TEs. But it is also a position that holds more value than a TE so that has to be factored in when evaluating draft position. And again there are more OTs in the draft than TEs so naturally there will be more taken in the top 100.

I see the sense in signing Wagner. Solid vet presence at MLB (something we haven't had since Fletcher) and hopefully a mentor to a rookie MLB and the other young LB's.

I have wanted this team to sign Bobby Wagner the minute he left Seattle.

That's seven TEs projected to go in the first 5 rounds. I wouldn't call that a deep or strong TE class.

The 10th Tight End is projected to be drafted in the 7th round.

For comparison, the 10th Tackle is projected to be drafted late in the 2nd round. That's a deep/strong class.

I was trying to make the point that the players I listed are players that I would take because they seem like players who are ready to play now. I should have said that the Commanders could probably have one of them if they want one of them enough to draft him relatively high. If they don't want to draft one by the 5th round then the TE position must not be a priority.

As for the Tackle position, if you are are suggesting that we'd better draft one in the 2nd Round to be safe, I'd say that would be wise; however, some of those Top 10 tackles may bust. Also, the tackles projected to go from #11 on might all be dog doo which would mean that this wasn't a strong class for Tackles after all.

I see the sense in signing Wagner. Solid vet presence at MLB (something we haven't had since Fletcher) and hopefully a mentor to a rookie MLB and the other young LB's.

I stopped visiting that site because of the slideshow style presentation and all the clicks but I would sign Wagner. Yes!

I understand OL was a poor example to use though , maybe CB or fullback


Anywho it’s march we are splitting hairs here waiting on draft and FA

Yeah this is the most exciting offseason I can remember. I can't wait to see what grown ups do when they try to rebuild a team.

I'm pretty excited but also definitely afraid. Like my brother said, if this crew can't get it right then we may have no hope.

Other than number of wins my idea of getting it right is:
-focusing on building the lines early in FA

- Don't overspend but spend.

- And of course at draft time. the qb solution

I do hope Armstrong is a target.

The Jonah I would rather them go after is Jonah Williams.
