For the last few weeks, the Nationals offense has been heavily reliant on James Wood and CJ Abrams. However, with Abrams out of the lineup, and Wood not having the best game, it was on the supporting cast to get the job done. Led by Nasim Nunez, the Nats were able to put six runs […]
The Washington Commanders currently held six draft picks heading into the 2026 NFL Draft, with only two of them coming in the first two rounds. Last offseason, they made a major move, trading four draft picks to the Houston Texans for star left tackle Laremy Tunsil. That included their second and fourth-round picks in the […]
The San Francisco 49ers were actively looking to upgrade their roster last year, making a couple of key moves right before and well into the season. Among those was the trade for Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr., who immediately slotted into that No. 2 role for the 49ers behind star Christian McCaffrey. The […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is officially over and Washington has added 6 new players to their roster. The Commanders entered the draft with 6 picks, and general manager Adam Peters went into this draft looking to raise the talent level of the team, and that’s what he did on Day 1 of the draft. He […]

It’s Day 3 of the NFL Draft, and the Washington Commanders have made their fifth pick of the weekend! They went with Ohio State LB Sonny Styles in the first round and Clemson WR Antonio Williams in the third round yesterday. Washington’s first pick today was Tennessee EDGE Joshua Josephs in the 5th round. In […]
Penn State’s all-time leading rusher now knows where he’ll play in the NFL. Kaytron Allen, who spent four years running through Big Ten defenses, was picked 187th overall in the 6th round by the Washington Commanders. Allen spent the better part of his career as the less heralded running back in the Fatman and Gatorade […]

Washington’s first pick of the day was Tennessee EDGE Joshua Josephs and now they […]
Having smartly timed their turn to lead correctly in a seesaw game last night, the White Sox try to pick up another victory over the Nationals this afternoon, albeit under much different conditions. A nor’easter that hit overnight has dropped the temperature more than 20° from yesterday and produced 25 mph wind gusts that should […]
After the Nats lost a close one last night, they need to rebound and get back on track. They are 3-7 in their last 10, so a win this afternoon is much needed. The Nats will have to face a massive rookie lefty to get that win though. The Nats lineup looks very different today. […]
It’s Day 3 of the NFL Draft, and the Washington Commanders have made their third pick of the weekend! They went with Ohio State LB Sonny Styles in the first round and Clemson WR Antonio Williams in the third round yesterday. Washington’s first pick of the day is Tennessee edge rusher Joshua Josephs. The Commanders […]
The Houston Texans surprised many last offseason when they traded star left tackle Laremy Tunsil to the Washington Commanders for a haul of draft picks. Tunsil wanted (and eventually got) a new contract that made him the highest-paid tackle in the NFL, which the Texans didn’t feel was realistic with their budget, but the move […]

Commanders links Articles The Athletic (paywall) Commanders get help for Jayden Daniels, adding Clemson WR Antonio Williams Washington, which lost multiple wideouts to injuries throughout last season and has lacked a consistent No. 2 receiver to complement Terry McLaurin. Whether Williams — the 71st pick of the draft — can develop into that, however, remains […]
Well, Day 2 of the draft didn’t unfold quite like most Commanders’ fans were expecting. Instead of picking more highly rated players, according to draft boards around the internet, Adam Peters selected former Clemson WR Antonio Williams out of Clemson. While most commenters on the Hogs Haven Day 2 open thread had someone they liked […]
The NFC East added some prominent pass rushers through the NFL Draft’s first two days. The New York Giants took Ohio State’s Arvell Reese with the No. 5 overall pick. The Dallas Cowboys added UCF edge rusher Malchi Lawrence at No. 23. The Philadelphia Eagles added one with, in part, a pick they didn’t even […]
Sonny Styles was the 7th overall pick, and is already a fan favorite. The Washington Commanders added one of the most athletic linebackers ever to a defense that will be rebuilt under new coordinator Daronte Jones. Styles is only 21-years old, but was a true leader at Ohio State. That’s something that will be needed […]
I’m sure most of you are thinking that it’s WAY COOL that after a surprisingly successful road trip (4-2, two series wins!) out west that the home cooking will taste MIGHTY FINE with the Nationals in town. Yes, it’s true that no one is expecting anything from the Nasty Nats this season, the club is […]
The Nationals are hitting the road, where they have been a much better team this season. They will face a White Sox team that is pretty similar to themselves. Both are rebuilding teams that do not have great records but have shown flashes of a bright future. This should be a fun little series. The […]
When the Washington Nationals picked up Ronny Cruz as part of the return in the Michael Soroka deal, he was seen as a high upside lottery ticket. You could see the upside, but he was very raw and put up middling numbers in rookie ball. However, that upside is being realized and Cruz has had […]
The Nationals looked to even the series with the Braves yesterday afternoon at Nationals Park, and were in position to possibly steal the win going into the 7th inning tied 2-2. Unfortunately, the bullpen let them down once again, as Cionel Perez was tagged for 3 runs after getting just one out, bringing his ERA […]
Washington fans are happy with the newest Commander Like those of most NFL teams, Commanders fans are enthusiastic about the team’s 1st round selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. Washington picked former Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles — literally the most athletic player at his position in the past 40 years, based on results from […]
Welcome to our Wizards player review series. We’ll go through each guy that played meaningful minutes and look back on their season. Here’s Julian Reese. The last games of the Wizards’ season were a testing ground for borderline NBA talent. Nobody else made quite the impression that Julian Reese did, at least on the scoresheet. […]
The Washington Commanders’ Starter windbreaker is here in time for draft weekend courtesy of our friends at Homage. The pullovers were a big hit and now the entire NFL gets a new jacket to rock. The iconic sideline look is back! The HOMAGE x Starter Washington Commanders Windbreaker features the bold, geometric color-blocking that defined […]
As we all know, the Nationals badly need talented pitchers. After yesterday’s game, they called up one of the more promising arms in their system in Riley Cornelio. The 25 year old was the Nats 7th round pick in 2022 who broke out last season before taking another step this year. Now, he is getting […]
