Jayden Daniels had Olamide Zaccheus, 34-year old Zach Ertz, Noah Brown and Austin Ekeler as his top weapons behind Terry McLaurin in ‘24 — with an inept defense and a rookie at LT — but some folks believe Washington won’t compete in ‘26 with McLaurin, Stefon Diggs, a dynamic rookie in Antonio Williams, the most explosive TE Washington has had since Jordan Reed in Chig Okonkwo, and a much more talented group on D?
The interior OL and CBs room are major questions, but there is obvious pop on either side of the ball that hasn’t received enough credit, or really any credit at all. Massive year for all involved from GM Adam Peters on down.
Jayden Daniels looks amazing. I remember watching him in a joint practice two years ago as a rookie and being impressed. He's even better now.
That's what a QB is supposed to look like.

A few things about the 2026 Nationals as June 15th ends.
1) They are currently a playoff team. They'd be the NL's 3rd Wild Card if the season ended today.
2) They have the 4th best run differential in the NL. Their +17 differential is the best among all non division leaders.
3) They are 27-19 since the last week of April, 5th-best in the NL. That's a 95-win full season pace over the last seven weeks.
4) At 5.47 runs per game, the Nationals are still No. 1 in MLB in scoring
This has been fun.
Brandon Aiyuk had to rehab at the 49ers' facility, but Nick Bosa is allowed to rehab in Florida and Christian McCaffrey was allowed to rehab in Germany. Double standard.
