There have been rumors swirling around the NFL, from who teams will select to what they may trade and get compensation for particular picks, and fans are loving all the potential chaos that may happen. The Washington Commanders are no strangers to these rumors.
The Washington Commanders experienced a complete overhaul in the 2024 off-season, bringing on Dan Quinn as the team’s new head coach and signing veteran players such as linebacker Bobby Wagner and running back Austin Ekeler.
The Commanders hold the second overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, and with the team in a decent situation, it seems they could be in a position to move the selection and have reportedly been fielding offers.
NFL reporter Dianna Russini posted to X stating that while the team is receiving calls for its number two overall pick, they are declining every option to trade due to the fact that they do not see any of their quarterbacks as future franchise options.
