Are Israel and Iran headed for a full-blown war?General manager Adam Peters on Thursday took a little mystery out of the Washington Commanders’ plans for next week’s No. 2 pick in the NFL draft, telling reporters the team has essentially ruled out trading down.
“You don’t really need to make a decision until you need to make a decision,” the first-year general manager said. “So there’s no rush with that, but I think we’ll have a pretty good idea of what we’re doing next week.” The sportsbooks see LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels, the 2023 Heisman Trophy winner, as most likely to be taken by Washington on Thursday, but the Commanders have kept their options open, scouting several candidates throughout the process.
“It’s very beneficial to see everybody in a more relaxed environment,” the general manager said. “They all got a lot of time individually … got a great blend of that and then working with everybody together in one environment.” “It takes the whole organization to do something like this. I appreciate that,” the former scout said.
