PFF believes the Commanders drafted well as they brought in nine incredible players during the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Washington Commanders had an incredible three days during the 2024 NFL Draft, taking a big leap toward contention. One thing is clear after the Commanders' selections during the event -- there's a new era in the nation's capital.
The team used the second round to add two new defenders -- selecting defensive lineman Johnny Newton at pick No. 36 and cornerback Mike Sainristil at pick No. 50. Just in the first two rounds, the Commanders got better on two levels of the field defensively and secured the engine to their offense.rated each of the 32 franchise's draft hauls and gave the Commanders an"A" for the nine players they brought onto their roster.
The Commanders had the choice between Daniels or North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye, and opted to get a guy with sky-high potential who fits the mold of the new-look offense in Washington D.C. "The Commanders continue to draft good football players. Sainristil brings a fierce mentality to the team and provides positional versatility," PFF wrote of the new Commanders cornerback."He secured a career-best six interceptions in 2023, second among cornerbacks, and his 90.3 PFF grade since 2022 ranked fourth among Big Ten cornerbacks. Sainristil has great reaction speed and is fearless in run defense.
