The Washington Commanders desperately needed to have a good draft. And they did. They picked Jayden Daniels out of LSU with the No. 2 overall pick. Johnny Newton, Mike Sainstril, Brandon Coleman and Luke McCaffrey were all high-value picks.
In free agency, the Commanders brought Austin Ekeler and Bobby Wagner to the Capital despite overpaying for vets. But they really needed to turn the franchise around, and Dan Quinn is seen as the man to do just that.
When it comes to the playoffs, though, don't expect the Commanders to be in play. The NFC East is a tough, tough division and the Commanders don't have the tools to be competitive in year one of a rebuild. Our algorithm puts the Commanders' playoff chances at 11% entering Week 1.
