Twitter reaction to Commanders No. 47 pick Jartavius Martin

With the 47th pick in the 2023 NFL draft, the Washington Commanders selected Jartavius Martin, CB Illinois.

This comes as a surprise, seeing the Commanders chose a CB in the first round last night, and Cody Mauch, an offensive tackle, was thought high enough by the Tampa Bay Bucs that they selected Mauch with the very next selection.

Coach Ron Rivera has often spoken of how much he looks for “position flex.” Well, he might not find anyone more able to fill more roles than Martin.  Last season, Martin spend considerable time playing deep safety, in the box, wide corner and in the slot.
