Commanders not likely to trade out of No. 2

Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters said the team feels "great about staying at No. 2" and that they "don't see a whole lot of scenarios [where they trade] down."

Fantasy Impact

The Commanders pick second overall in the 2024 NFL Draft and are in a prime position to get almost any player they want — outside of whoever gets selected No. 1. ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter said he believes LSU QB Jayden Daniels will be the pick for Washington, and unless they get a massive trade offer, they'll likely stand pat and get the first- or second-best QB on their board.

Commanders, Quinn will not bring back Eric Bieniemy

Dan Quinn informed 2023-24 offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy that the Washington Commanders would not bring him back for the 2024-25 season.

Fantasy Impact

Last year, Bieniemy spent his first season as an NFL offensive coordinator outside of Kansas City in Washington, getting to call plays for the first time in the NFL as well. The Commanders saw some success on offense, notably first-year starter Sam Howell’s passing yardage and touchdowns, but also struggled in other areas like overall consistency, utilization of particular offensive players, high pressure rates and turnovers. Bieniemy likely showed enough in his season to earn a job elsewhere in 2024, but with a new staff and front office coming in, Quinn will look elsewhere at the OC position.

Commanders' hire Dan Quinn as next head coach

The Washington Commanders have hired Dan Quinn as the team's next head coach.

Fantasy Impact

Washington becomes the last team to finalize its head coach out of all the openings this offseason. They hold the most cap space in the league and the No. 2 pick while looking to establish a new culture among the team and organization. Quinn was last the head coach for the Falcons from 2015-20.

Ben Johnson the top choice for the Commanders

The Commanders are targeting Lions’ OC Ben Johnson as their top choice for their vacant head coaching position.

Fantasy Impact

Johnson is also being heavily sought after by the Panthers. With the Lions set to take on the Rams this weekend, Johnson’s name will likely heat up after the Lions’ playoff run concludes.

Commanders D/ST allows 38 points in Week 18

The Commanders D/ST allowed 38 points while forcing one turnover in a 38-10 loss to the Cowboys in Week 18.

Fantasy Impact

Washington struggled against the Cowboys as they allowed Dallas to rack up 440 yards of total offense. The Commanders had one of the worst pass defenses in the league this season and will need to shore up their secondary this offseason.
