Commanders | Antonio Williams draws encouraging comp Fri May 1, 04:13 PM
Washington Commanders WR Antonio Williams was compared to retired WR Randall Cobb by a national NFL scout.
| Footballguys view: The Commanders need Williams to come up big right away because after Terry McLaurin, they don't really have any other players to keep defensive coordinators up at night in the passing game or running game - unless they want to expose Jayden Daniels to injury as a runner by design. He's a solid 2nd/3rd round pick in PPR dynasty rookie drafts that start at least three wide receivers. |

Link to storyUTSA RB Robert Henry Jr. signed with the Washington Commanders as an undrafted free agent Saturday, April 25, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: The Commanders drafted Kaytron Allen in the sixth round - a back who is more powerful and better-suited for running between the tackles - but Henry is a much better athlete with a penchant for breaking arm tackles on the way to taking runs to the house and a decisive one-cut-and-go style. We'll be watching to see if either emerges this summer to make the roster with the Commanders lacking a true #1 back. |
