The training camps around the NFL started in July, some earlier than others, but the majority of the teams have been at camp for at least a week now. This is the moment when coaches can put their plan into action, players can show coaches what they learned and how they improved during the offseason.
Since we had some training time, the journalist of Fox Sports Ralph Vacchiano has created NFL power classification Based on the information we currently have. THE Washington Commanders Ranked seventh on his list.
After an exceptional recruit season, the commanders made sure that they obtained the quarter-Arrière Jayden Daniels a lot of aid so that he did not have a second-year slowdown. They exchanged with the receiver Deebo Samuel and the left platform Laremy Tunsil and drafted another tackle, Josh Conerly, in the first round. But defense still needs help. He ranked 13th in total last season, but that hides the fact that he ranked lower in most defensive categories, including the 30th against the race – and it was before the defensive platform Jonathan Allen signed with the Vikings. They replaced it with Javon Kinlaw, while adding the corner half Jonathan Jones and the 36 -year -old secondary von Miller. But they will always need Daniels to cover a defense that will not be great.
Before the commanders were the Pittsburgh Steelers (6), Green Bay Packers (5), Buffalo Bills (4), Kansas City Chiefs (3), Baltimore Ravens (2) and Philadelphia Eagles (1).

As usual, the teams that are always strongly favored are at the top. The problem here is not only that commanders should be fifth on this list, but Detroit lions are not in this mixture either. Understand that the landscape of each team changes during the offseason, the way you put the best NFC team of the regular season of the last year below the teams that were eliminated in the Wild Card Round, or which have not done the playoffs at all, is confusing.
Commanders will wear a chip on their shoulder all season, again, if they have to. It gives them something to fight, something to prove, because a success season does not mean much in the NFL. But if they can repeat what they did last season or work even better, then the league will start to take them more seriously.
