Commanders 2024 NFL Draft Thread

I'm paraphrasing here but I think you said it would be stupid to draft a player who can't contribute over one who can.

My argument is that even if Penix Jr doesn't contribute this year, him sitting and learning isn't a bad thing. And if Cousins does get hurt again they have a young developing qb to turn to.


That is what I said I guess we had a different understanding of the wording (My fault). Poster I was responding to wanted to reach if necessary for OT instead of taking more talented players at other positions of need like CB. I thought it would be stupid to pass up better players that can contribute than a lesser talent that wouldn't really contribute (or would be less likely to).

Of course Harbaugh moved up to take Ladd. He knows

Top CB’s are still on the board.

WTF

I'm fine with the first of the two 2nd round picks. We got rid of some DL so we needed to restock on that area. Still need to see some OL though. Big time. However, isn't the interior already crowded with Payne/Allen?


Of course Harbaugh moved up to take Ladd. He knows

No worries for us. We surely didn't need another WR.

I don't get the DT pick at all, it was arguably the only position we shouldn't have taken as others mentioned before the pick

Suggesting either there's a trade on the cards (Allen?) or they simply went BPA and will scheme up to use the guy effectively. My vote is trade.

I don't understand why we wouldn't have traded the 4th Dt and a 3rd for a starting LT in the first. Boy, first reaction from me, a real head scratcher, unless we are trading Payne for a starting LT or something that we don't know

It appears he was highest rated on their board. #20 on espn board, DeJean is #19.
Hate the pick as far as need. Would rather CB there.

Need to redeem themselves here.
