The Washington Commanders entered the 2023 NFL draft focusing on two positions: offensive line and cornerback. At No. 16 overall, the Commanders selected Mississippi State cornerback, Emmanuel Forbes, filling a major need.
However, as Washington enters day two, the Commanders must address the offensive line and add depth at other positions, such as edge rusher and linebacker.
