Walking off the field of a cold and rainy MetLife Stadium in Week 18 of last year, Ron Rivera entered the offseason with a laundry list of needs after the 2021 Washington Football team finished a disappointing 7-10. The Commanders lacked depth in the secondary, linebacking corp, tight end room, and at wide receiver. These are the cards that Rivera and his staff chose, and these are the cards they have to play with. The “slow start” and “fast finish” plan this team used in 2020 and 2021 isn’t going to cut it. If not, this could be yet another painfully long season of football in our nation’s capital.
