Commanders will have 'fun options' at No. 7

Commanders GM Adam Peters says, his words, the team is more likely than not to keep the seventh overall pick in the NFL draft.
I would not be surprised if what he's saying is they haven't found any partners to trade down, because currently the Commanders are without their second and fourth round picks because of their acquisition of Laremy Tunsil, left tackle.
Last off-season, they kind of went all in on this Jayden Daniels explosion, and of course, Jayden Daniels regresses, gets banged up.
They lose a dozen games, and now they're a team that is light on draft capital that is also picking inside the top 10 after losing 12 games.
That's not really the setup you wanna see.
I bet if any team wants to move from outside the top 10 to sort of the back half of the top 10, the Commanders will be very willing to be that partner to move out of the top 10.
But as Peters kind of points out, it does seem like they're stuck not moving up, not moving down at that number seven overall pick.
I think there's a lot of fun options at number seven overall, when, particularly when it comes to skill position players.
I would love to see Jeremiah Love land on this team.
His explosive rushing style, plus Jayden Daniels drawing the attention of defenses, I think it would be absolute fireworks.
From a real perspective, I think maybe wide receiver makes more sense, more valuable position in general, and there should be good options there.
Ohio State's Carnell Tate could be on the board.
I do think Arizona State's Jordan Tyson will be on the board when they pick, and both those players are true wide receiver one material when it comes to their prospect profiles.
A lot of stuff going on in Washington.
I think they stick at seven, but of course, to stay up to date, keep it locked to Rotoworld as we approach the NFL draft.
