On today's episode of Locked On Commanders, we dive into what Brian Robinson Jr. needs to accomplish in his contract year to earn a second deal with Washington. With a projected value of $8.2 million per year, can he hit the production and scheme fit needed to stay?

We also examine the Commanders' biggest weakness on defense heading into 2025—run defense on the perimeter and questions at the second and third levels. Is the linebacker and safety depth enough to improve?

Plus, we look at whether Sam Cosmi could be replaced on the offensive line if the current group finds chemistry, and if a stronger offensive line means more 10 personnel and wider formations for Jayden Daniels.

The Washington Commanders had a solid NFL Draft, but was it good enough to be the best in the NFC East?

That is the first question we dive into while also looking back at the two previous classes and where they stack up today. Then, more free agent targets post-draft, and the Commanders make a kicking change.
