Nickel – Forbes/Fuller outside, Martin in slot, Curl SS, Forrest FS.

Buffalo nickel will be same, but vs 2 TE sets Martin becomes FS and Curl/Forrest match the TEs.

Dime – Curl becomes dime LB, Butler plays deep with Forrest.

Butler vs Forrest will be fun camp battle to watch https://t.co/M5z9yPDzwa

Is Butler good enough to push Forrest? Thought Forrest had a pretty good year last year. Didn’t see a whole lot from Percy . Also Reaves has been Reed Doughty-esque in his ability to contribute when called upon.

— Guys Again Remember Understand (@BurnerDanSnyder) June 27, 2023

I think he could be, yeah. Forrest did a really nice job playing single high and playing physical when working downhill, but Butler fits the quarters/match stuff they like to do better.

— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) June 27, 2023

Can we count Fuller as a sleeper on defense? I feel like Washington fans really underrate Kendall Fuller in this scheme. If you’re looking for a younger guy, Butler intrigues in the secondary and Ridgeway offers more than people think up front as 5th DL/NT https://t.co/Yk6mi0XXmG

ICYMI, I was with Deuce and entered the Red Zone in the Lab podcast on Saturday. We discussed the Commanders’ draft and had a look at the upcoming season. https://t.co/wY0z2sySsK

Opted for Khaleke Hudson. Not a lot of surprises in what we saw from many others. Hudson had a good spring. Keep it up and the LB depth is much better… Surprise offseason standouts for 32 NFL teams: Players to watch – ESPN https://t.co/RWmTSnMdSu

The cross-chop into the hump move has been Jon Allen’s signature move for a while. Don’t see many OL able to contain it. Best DL on a stacked #Commanders DL group https://t.co/pTalTHwWR6

Jahan Dotson shined on the field at Penn State while dealing with one of the toughest moments of his life off of it.

But @JahanDotson did not let adversity stop him from achieving his goals of being a first-round pick.

#Commanders could of drafted Chris Olave, but the trade netted..
Jahan Dotson
Brian Robinson
Sam Howell
Cole Turner

All potential year 2 break out candidates. This trade could turn out to be franchise altering if Howell is QB1. #HTTC pic.twitter.com/LpA3K2HXJq

Both should benefit. Think Samuel will be used as the “gadget” guy, which is important in this offense. Gibson will be the 3rd down back, which is just as important if not more so.

RB Jerick McKinnon had 9 receiving TDs last year for KC, so Gibson could see big jump there w/ EB https://t.co/GwqFd88EHf

The Washington Commanders were one of only three teams to punt in field goal range last season. Washington’s 2nd punt vs the Giants in the same game(Week 15) had an even higher surrender index!https://t.co/RIqg9PWjdI https://t.co/Pj9V4ftk0s

Not sure how widely known this is, but the NFL is switching to 4 angles of all-22 as the default setting, for the 2023 season.

— Coach Vass (@CoachVass) June 26, 2023

It will be scoreboard, wide, tight end zone, wide end zone.

Some, if not all teams already do this, but they don’t share it. Also, some teams intercut broadcast footage as the last angle.

Good news: Leonard Fournette escaped a very scary moment earlier today

His car caught fire while he was driving, as you can see from the video, it could’ve been really bad.

Just horrible news about Ryan Mallet drowning in Florida today.
