0:00On April 22nd, Washington commanders are gearing up for the NFL draft with their seventh overall pick and history smiling on them. Last time they grabbed someone there in 1999, it was Shant Bailey out of Georgia. Due turned into a 12-time pro-bola, Snag 52 picks, and landed in both the Broncos ring of fame and Washington's all-time greats list. Earlier picks at seven weren't as shiny, but Bailey set the bar sky high. Their Iron Day 3 gems too, with four late picks including a fifth, two-sixth, and a seventh. Standouts like Wake Forest Running Back, Demon Clayborn, a speedy dual threat compared to Dave O'Neill, in the Annalynebacker Aiden Fisher with over. 200 tackles and all American nods, and versatile safeties like a Kobe Thomas from Miami who balled out with five picks last year. These guys bring speed, grit, and upside to fix roster holes. Fans and insiders are buzzing about no reaches at seven new coordinators.

1:01Durante Jones and David Blue want skim fits like linebackers, sunny styles. Or, corners like Mansour Delane. Annalyne's Logan Paulson dropped his tier top 100 board, stressing fits over raw rankings. A fan contest lets you predict all six picks plus bonus trades for prizes. Rookie contracts are exploding too. With top picks topping $50 million fully guaranteed for four years, thanks to the salary cap hitting. Over 300 million. Meanwhile, Jets GM downplayed canceling a visit with Edge David Bailey and Giants hosted vets like Bonito Jones, post Dexter Lawrence era. Draft kicks off Thursday, so commanders could trade around or snag instant impact. Keep ears open, could be another Bailey level steel brewing.
