Commanders land polarizing playmaker in Daniel Jeremiah's final mock

Draft day is here. And Daniel Jeremiah's final mock draft is live. No surprise, Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza goes No. 1 overall to the Las Vegas Raiders. But what about the rest of the top 10 in the 2026 NFL Draft?

Jeremiah's mock has one big trade in the top 10, as the New Orleans Saints move up to No. 3 to select Ohio State linebacker/EDGE Arvell Reese. At No. 4, Jeremiah has Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles going to the Tennessee Titans and Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love heading to the New York Giants at No. 5.

At No. 6, the Cleveland Browns land the first offensive lineman, Utah tackle Spencer Fano. Next up, the Washington Commanders.

With Ohio State receiver Carnell Tate, LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane and Ohio State safety Caleb Downs on the board, the Commanders go in another direction, selecting Arizona State wide receiver Jordyn Tyson.

The Commanders have a screaming need at wide receiver. There are legitimate durability concerns about Tyson, but they are willing to take a chance on the upside. I also see safety Caleb Downs as a possibility here.
