Washington Commanders have recently made significant moves, including trading Jahan Dotson and John Ridgeway, resulting in better draft capital for 2025, but new acquisitions have reduced their immediate picks. Recent trades for stars like Marshon Lattimore and Laremy Tunsil have left them with only five picks for the upcoming draft, placing them 31st in CBS Sports' ranking of NFL teams by draft value, just ahead of the Minnesota Vikings. With a total draft value of 283.26 points, they have retained their top two picks but traded away their third and fourth rounds to acquire Lattimore. This strategy aligns with GM Adam Peters' plan to build around rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels.

The Commanders are still keen on maximizing their draft potential and may trade down to increase their capital. The focus is on enhancing the team while managing the rookie quarterback's affordability, hinging on veteran talent acquisition and future picks. Despite injury concerns with Lattimore and Samuel, the hope is a healthy offseason will rejuvenate them.
