NFL Draft is happening today, and few teams are entering the weekend with more at stake than the Washington Commanders. After a bold offseason, the franchise finds itself at a pivotal moment. There’s sustained energy and cautious optimism among the fanbase.

The Washington Commanders were arguably the story of the 2024 NFL season. In the first year of the Dan Quinn era, Washington went from 4-13 to 12-5 in a magical campaign that ended in the NFC Championship game.

There will be plenty of Seahawks draft picks to look forward to this weekend, including a handful of Washington-raised players to keep an eye on — starting as early as the first round.
