Brandon Coleman did a good job by playing in the left tackle for the Washington Commanders In 2024. It was even more impressive when you consider that Coleman was a choice of third round recruit that many believe better suited to the guard in the NFL.
However, in certain matches, such as the NFC championship against the Philadelphia Eagles, Coleman had problems slowing down the rushers on the pass of Philly. While there was a precious part of the future of Washington, the director general Adam Peters wanted to consolidate the blind side of the Jayden Daniels quarter with one of the premium left plated of the NFL.
But how would Peters land one of these players? The teams do not let the best offensive plated arrive on the free market. The commanders shocked everyone on the first day of the free agency, accepting a business with the Texans of Houston for the Quintuple of Tolle Pro Bowl, Laremy Tunsil. This decision gives Washington one of the best NFL passes protectors and allows the attacking coordinator Kliff Kingsbury to move Coleman elsewhere, whether in the right tackle or inside the left guard.
Daniels was enthusiastic about the arrival of Tunsil, not only because he is a great teammate and a leader, but also because he knows that he will be even safer in the pocket with Tunsil on the ground.
According to the 33rd team, Tunsil is second in the entire NFL with the lowest pressure rates authorized in the last three seasons at 3.2%. Only Tampa Bay All-Pro Tristan Wirfs platform is ahead of Tunsil at 2.3%.
There is no more important player in a deductible than the quarter-arre, especially when you have a special. This has only made a season, but the commanders know that they have one of the best in Daniels. So, whatever the cost to protect Daniels, it was not too much.
