NFL draft analyst names player 'most likely' to land with Commanders
Todd McShay thinks the Commanders are in a great position at No. 7 overall.
Who will the Washington Commanders draft at No. 7 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft in two weeks? Washington is a team of mystery, in part because of the unpredictability of this upcoming draft.
Outside of Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, who is expected to go No. 1 overall to the Las Vegas Raiders, predicting the rest of the top 10 feels impossible. While the Commanders were busy in free agency addressing numerous needs, they've left themselves open to picking almost any position outside of quarterback.
There are other positions that Washington is unlikely to select at No. 7, such as the offensive line or tight end, but the Commanders could select an edge rusher, linebacker, cornerback, safety, wide receiver, or running back; you get the point. So much of what Washington will do will be determined by the six teams ahead of them.
In the latest edition of " The McShay Show ," featuring NFL draft analyst Todd McShay and NFL insider Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the pair analyzed several of the teams picking inside the top 10, including Washington. At first, the talk centered around where Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love would go, what the Cleveland Browns would do at No. 6 and more.
