2023 was a forgettable year for the Washington Commanders, but with new team owner Josh Harris and his ownership group, including Magic Johnson, they are hoping to turn things around. The Commanders have already made moves by hiring Dan Quinn and Kliff Kingsbury as part of their coaching staff. Now, they have a chance to upgrade their quarterback position with the No. 2 pick in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft.
While the Commanders are currently in line to draft either Drake Maye or Jayden Daniels at No. 2, there is speculation that they could trade up to secure the top pick from the Chicago Bears. This would allow them to bring in USC superstar Caleb Williams, who would reunite with Kingsbury. LeSean McCoy of FOX Sports believes that going after Williams is crucial for the Commanders’ rebuilding process.
Williams has the potential to be a superstar right from the start and would be the perfect quarterback to build a franchise around. If Washington can convince the Bears to part with the top pick, bringing in Williams would be a game-changer for the Commanders. It would immediately thrust the team into the spotlight and greatly aid in the rebuilding process.
