The Washington Commanders 2022 draft class is complete!

The 2022 NFL Draft is officially over and Washington has added 8 new players to their roster. The Commanders entered the draft with 6 picks, but committed to added more picks in a draft they felt was strong in the middle rounds. They went in missing their 3rd round pick(Carson Wentz trade) and 5th round pick(Eagles trade last year), but ended up picking in both of those rounds.

The draft kicked off for Washington with the #11 overall pick, but they received several calls and decided to take the deal being offered by the Saints. They dropped down to #16 and picked up 3rd and 4th round picks.
