With respect to speculation about who the Washington Commanders might be selecting with the No. 2 overall pick, here is what head coach Dan Quinn said – speaking from the NFL Annual Meeting in Orlando – on Tuesday: "If they say they know, they have to fill me in, because [general manager Adam Peters] and I don't know yet."
Quinn stressed “the ability from the neck up” for quarterbacks in the draft. “There's so much that goes into it of making decisions and putting the ball in the right spot, the accuracy, the toughness," he said.
Here's what Peters said earlier this week:
“We still have a lot of [time], a month til the draft [as of] today. It doesn’t sound like a long time, but you get a lot of information in that month. There are still some of the guys we haven’t seen in person. So, we’ll go out and do that next week, see a couple more quarterbacks. Then, we’ll do visits with them. We’ll do Zoom calls. We’ll do a lot of different things.
“So, we’re far from our answer.”
On the defensive side, when it comes to scheme vs. talent, the new head coach added: “If you’re not a good tackling team, you’re going to get your ass kicked.”
Kevin Sheehan said that the Commanders leadership has said they do not know who they are picking and he believes them. Listen to his full take from the Kevin Sheehan Show on the audio player above!
