The Washington Commanders head into the NFL Draft with a unique position — for the first time in years, they do not need to focus on securing a quarterback. General manager Adam Peters has a range of options at pick No. 29, especially after the impressive performance from Jayden Daniels, who led the team to the NFC Championship last season. Key roster needs remain, particularly on the defensive edge, following losses in free agency.

Among the prospects linked to the Commanders, Donovan Ezeiruaku from Boston College stands out as a potential first-round pick. His versatility and significant college production make him a candidate to fill the gap left by Dante Fowler. Other names like James Pearce Jr. from Tennessee and Nick Emmanwori from South Carolina also show promise. The draft could be a pivotal moment for Washington's trajectory as they look to solidify their roster for the upcoming season.
