Wagner's Commanders Future Uncertain

0:00On March 30th, the Washington commanders might be moving on from better in linebacker Bobby Wagner after his two-year stint. He's 34 now, still led the team in tackles last season, but teams exploited him in coverage. With free agency three weeks in, the front office added Michael Chanol, signaling a youth movement at the position. This week at the league's owner's meeting, owner Josh Harris, GM Adam Peters, and Coach Dan Quinn will face the media for the first time since the spending spree. Bill likely addressed the defense, but no one's expecting Wagner news right away. Everyone in the building respects Wagner. He mentored young guys like Frankie Louvue, Weight No, Actually, Jamon Davis, or Shadrideric. Nah, as Rookie Dorian Williams, hold up. The point is, Coach is rave about his leadership, but he's not seen as a full-time starter anymore. The real intrigue is back up, Jordan Maggie, who soaked up Wagner's wisdom over two years. Is he ready for the green dot and Mike Limebacker duties? Meanwhile, this draft class is loaded with off-ball Limebackers, like sunny styles, who could drop to them and pair perfectly with Chanol for speed.

1:08Bottom line, Wagner could return in a lesser role if his market stalls till summer, but it feels like his commander's chapter is closing, even with all. The love in the room. Keep an eye on those meetings for clues.
