The Commanders’ 2023 draft class was not a good one.
Washington drafted seven players last year, and five of them were cut and failed to make this year’s 53-player roster.
The five players who were released are third-round center Ricky Stromberg, fourth-round tackle Braden Daniels, fifth-round defensive end KJ Henry, sixth-round running back Chris Rodriguez and seventh-round defensive end
Andre Jones.
Still on the team from last year’s draft class are first-round cornerback Emmanuel Forbes and second-round safety Quan Martin.
If the Commanders are ever going to turn the franchise around, they need
to draft a whole lot better than they have. A seven-player draft class
that sees five players cut after their rookie seasons is a failure of the
prior regime’s personnel department. First-year General Manager Adam
Peters has a lot of work on his hands to rebuild the roster.
But he no longer has Ron Rivera around fucking things up.
