The Washington Commanders will head into the 2023 season with Sam Howell and Jacoby Brissett competing to be the team’s starting quarterback. The only other quarterback on the roster is Jake Fromm.
Regardless of how outsiders feel about Washington’s quarterback position, the team is comfortable giving Howell the opportunity to prove he can be the team’s long-term answer at quarterback. If not, the Commanders have a capable veteran in Brissett who can steer the ship and keep them in playoff contention.
At some point in the 2023 NFL draft, Washington will likely target a quarterback. While they sound dismissive of a quarterback in the first round, they like Tennessee’s Hendon Hooker, although it’s doubtful the Commanders would select him in the first round.
The Commanders selected Howell with the first pick of the fifth round last year. Could they find another gem in the 2023 draft?
We take a look at a quarterback Washington could target in each of the seven rounds.
