"The Commanders have one glaring need they haven't done much to address. That would be their wide receiver room. They do not currently have a true No. 2 to complement Terry McLaurin."
"Zach Selby from the team's website highlighted USC wide receiver Makai Lemon as a potential candidate at No. 7, as part of an ongoing series leading into the draft. This would be an underwhelming pick, to say the least."
"Almost nobody has Lemon projected to go that early. Generally, the wideout has been projected as a mid-first-rounder, going between No. 13 and No. 20 among CBS Sports' six draft experts."
"If the Commanders are interested in a wide receiver, Ohio State's Carnell Tate has a chance to drop to them. Even then, it's fair to question if taking a wideout is the move at all."
The Washington Commanders hold the No. 7 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft and have a pressing need for a true No. 2 wide receiver. With Deebo Samuel Sr.'s contract expired and only depth additions made, general manager Adam Peters faces pressure to improve the wide receiver room. While Brandon Aiyuk is a potential target, the team may also consider drafting a wide receiver. However, selecting USC's Makai Lemon at No. 7 is seen as underwhelming, with projections suggesting he may go later in the first round.
