White's Signing Hailed, Robertson's Criticized

0:00It's March 27, I'm Cory with the story, and this is NFL News Today, football news powered by AI. NFL free agency for 2026 has slowed way down, with most big moves already done. Pro football focus just broke down their favorite and least favorite signings for each team, and for the Washington commanders, they loved adding. Running back was shod white, but hated the cornerback Amick Robertson deal. White came over from Tampa Bay on a bargain one year contract worth just $2 million. He posed a strong numbers last season, earning an 87.2 PFF Russian grade that ranked fourth among backs, even in a smaller role. Meanwhile, Robertson's 2 year 15 million dollar pact looks like poor value. He ranked 107th out of 112 qualifying corners with a dismal 48.6 overall grade, giving up 6 touchdowns. In a 107.3 pass rating, the running back group now gets crowded and competitive, with white joining Jerome Ford, Jeremy McNichols, and rookie standout Jakori Kroski-Marit.

1:05As the likely starter, White even shares a college past with quarterback Jaden Daniels from their Arizona state days. Robertson brings veteran grit as a 6 year pro who can play inside or outside, but the secondary still needs real help. As teens shift focus to the draft, these moves will shape how Washington's roster jails heading into next season.
