4. Washington Commanders
The Washington Commanders traded Brian Robinson before the season because they believed they had someone special in seventh-round pick Jacory Croskey-Merritt. While the rookie running back has performed remarkably well considering his draft capital, he hasn’t looked the same in recent weeks. The running back only has three games with more than 50 yards and hasn’t maintained his previous efficiency with increased work. Additionally, he doesn’t bring much to the passing game.
A Breece Hall trade would give the Commanders one of the league’s better backfield duos, but would Washington pull the trigger? Hall probably won’t come cheap, and the Commanders are currently 3-5 with a negative point differential. Is it worth it for this team to give up a notable draft pick for a luxury position like running back when they might not even make the playoffs?
