The Commanders’ offseason churn continues, and this episode of Commanders Daily dives straight into coaching turnover, early draft intel, and the decisions quietly shaping Washington’s next roster.
The show opens with another ripple from the coaching carousel, as Washington is set to lose assistant Jason Simmons, who is expected to join Mike McCarthy’s new staff in Pittsburgh. It’s a reminder of how fluid this moment is for the Commanders: new coordinators mean new priorities, new voices, and inevitably, familiar faces heading out the door.
From there, attention shifts to Mobile, where Day 2 of Senior Bowl practices offered early clues about who’s helping — and hurting — their draft stock. The episode breaks down several under-the-radar defenders who stood out, including edge rushers and linebackers who flashed against top competition, while calling out prospects who struggled to make an impact. Early and high-quality evaluation matters immensely for a team with limited premium picks and a long list of defensive needs.
The discussion then zooms out to the bigger question hovering over the entire offseason: what should Washington do with its first-round pick? The mailbag segment tackles that debate head-on, weighing positional value against talent tiers and asking whether elite defensive backs should trump edge rushers or linebackers at the top of the board.
