""This year, they finished No. 1 in the NFL in terms of draft capital over expected. Washington didn't have much capital, but it grabbed value early and often. This was an exercise in maximizing draft capital and making more out of less by drafting players the vast majority of evaluators expected to go earlier in the draft.""
""Peters self-evaluated and adjusted. That's not easy to do in a position where expectations are high, especially after a disappointing season. The Commanders needed a fresh approach, and Peters delivered by focusing on value and potential in the draft.""
