The Washington Commanders threw their chips into the middle this offseason with two daring trades that surged them into win-now mode. Adam Peters was correct to take bigger risks, but the general manager should also know that it hasn't paid off.
Peters stood pat at the 2025 trade deadline. Fans weren't expecting fireworks, especially regarding incomings. It was surprising to see no departures, but either no offers arrived or the Commanders didn't receive any acceptable ones.
Washington is keeping faith with the current personnel. But it's hard not to look at their current state and think massive changes aren't coming during the offseason.
