According to one analyst the Washington Commanders still need help at a position they addressed in the NFL Draft.
The Washington Commanders spent nine NFL Draft picks on nine different position groups, and that came after turning over nearly half the roster this offseason via free agent signings and releases.
Still, even though the Commanders have done a lot of remodeling in a short period of time there's no doubt the team still has holes to fill with little time remaining this offseason to do so. The fact of the matter is the rebuilding of Washington into a yearly NFL contender isn't likely going to take one offseason. And even while one ESPN analyst says wide receiver depth is still a major concern for the team, it's not likely to be fully fixed before 2025."Here's another team with a surprising lack of holes in the starting lineup.
There's a lot of specific ability in the Commanders' receiver room this year, but only McLaurin and Dotson have proven thus far they can be relied on as three-down contributors. Even then, both suffered setbacks last season when the arrival of assistant head coach and offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy was expected to launch each into the next tier of NFL receivers.
Even if it comes to fruition in year one, and the Commanders offense looks like a more efficient unit, it's highly likely the receiver room in 2024 will look much different in 2025 and beyond.David Harrison has covered the NFL since 2015 as a digital content creator in both written and audio media.
