Bradberry may be an absolute stud, but my trauma is so deep, I refuse to entertain it. Dave Gettleman drafted defensive backs have drained this franchise of nearly $106M since 2016. I’ll be completely honest, I can’t think about James Bradberry without experiencing cold sweats and jarring flashbacks of Josh Norman and Landon Collins. James Bradberry, 29, Eagles James Bradberry #24 of the Philadelphia Eagles speaks to the media during the Philadelphia Eagles media availability prior to Super Bowl LVII on Februin Phoenix, Arizona. The team seems likely to target a cornerback in the draft with the #16 pick, but the position needs to be bolstered in free agency ahead of the draft to prevent the team from being forced to use that valuable pick on a player of limited skills.ĬLICK HERE to see the Commanders current 63-man depth chart It looks as if the team needs a dependable slot corner to replace McCain, and, at the very least, the depth behind Fuller and St-Juste needs to be addressed preferably, the skill level of the unit as a whole needs to be upgraded. It is unclear whether the team plans to re-sign Danny Johnson. There are question marks about every other CB on the roster: Troy Apke, Rachad Wildgoose, Christian Holmes, Tariq Casto-Fields, and Marcus Fields. Kendall Fuller is pretty good, but at 28 years of age and in the final year of his contract, the Commanders need to be thinking about succession planning.īenjamin St-Juste, the 26-year-old 3rd year corner, has shown flashes, but has struggled to stay healthy, playing in just one game after Week 11 in 2022, following a rookie year in which he was on the field for just 20 snaps after Week 8. His departure, then, strains an already thin cornerback group. While Bobby McCain, who was just released, was putatively a free safety, per PFF, he lined up at slot corner more than any other position (including FS) and more so from Week 10 onwards. Washington Commanders free agency options: Offensive Tackles Washington Commanders free agency options: Offensive Guards & Centers Washington Commanders free agency options: Linebackers Today, we will look free agent cornerbacks before finishing the series with a look at tight ends tomorrow. So far in the series, we’ve looked at all the offensive line and linebacker positions. To keep things tidy, we encourage you to focus your thoughts on the position group of the day. We encourage you to not only comment on the players we’ve chosen to highlight, but to add your own thoughts or links to profiles of players you find intriguing. Obviously, we’re not trying to provide a comprehensive list of every free agent available rather, this is an effort to ‘prime the pump’ a little bit, and encourage discussion ahead of the upcoming free agency period. With any luck, that will lead to a more well-rounded view of the profiled players. Each of us will write our own player profiles, meaning that you’ll get TWO profiles on each player. To make this a little bit different, and hopefully a little bit of fun, KyleSmithforGM and Bill-in-Bangkok have agreed on the positions and the players. Washington Commanders free agency options will be a short series - likely four articles, each of which will profile 4 or 5 veteran free agents at positions of perceived need for the Commanders. The “legal tampering period” begins on Monday, 13 March, and free agency officially opens for business at 4pm EST on Wednesday, 15 March - the start of the 2023 league year. Veteran free agency is right around the corner.
