Probably just a planted story by the agent to further negotiations but you never know.I mean, I’d do it for Zaven and a 2nd, but why would the commanders trade their number 1 receiver when their window is now?
nah, its just purely speculation by a bored dude at bleacher report that needed to increase his clicksProbably just a planted story by the agent to further negotiations but you never know.
He is going to be 30 at the start of the season and based on the WR market, probably wants north of $30 million a year. McLaurin just hit what was probably his ceiling in production last season with TD variance. He's a deep threat guy that ran hot on TDs last year, history tells us he probably won't get close to 13 TDs again. They would be selling him near his peak value.I mean, I’d do it for Zaven and a 2nd, but why would the commanders trade their number 1 receiver when their window is now?
Not a very good one if he is down to openly quoting bleacher reportDonnie Druin is an NFL Insider.

Higher floor - absolutelyGannon and Monti have just made it clear they think we have enough with what we have on offense.
Look at the roster in 2021, we have more talent on offense now than we did that year.
But talent wasn't the issue on offense, it was many other things.
Absolutely not.Higher floor - absolutely
Higher ceiling - awaiting younger players development
This looks pretty even to me.Absolutely not.
WR1: DeAndre Hopkins (2021), MHJ (2025)
WR2: AJ Green (2021), Michael Wilson (2025)
WR3: Christian Kirk (2021), Greg Dortch/Zay Jones (2025)
RB1: James Conner (Both; 2021 version was 26 years old tho)
RB2: Chase Edmonds (2021), Trey Benson (2025)
The only places where the 2025 offense even competes is TE (Ertz vs McBride), RT (Beachum vs Williams, but I'd argue this is closer than you'd like), and RG (Justin Jones was bad, which is the floor for Christian Jones).
It's difficult to seriously argue that the floor or ceiling of this year's offense is better than the one we had in 2021. That group probably underperformed.
Yes if you project deranged expectations on a bunch of people who haven't shown that before it looks as good. But I'm sorry this is crazy talk.This looks pretty even to me.
I expect a big jump from MHJ, enough that he could be comparable to Hopkins
AJ Green sucked, I like Wilson better than him
Kirk has the advantage but I don't think it's huge.
Conner just had his best year last year so this seems even to me
I would take Benson over Edmonds, but again it's pretty comparable.
Oline is better now than then, but not by much.
McBride is a nice advantage now.
I think the talent is about the same to better now but I do think Kingsbury's offense was a little better than Petzing's.
I'm a huge Michael Wilson fan but he also needs to take that next step.this'll be the offense's second year together - hopefully no major changes means more continuity but mhj and benson need to take that next step
exactly - this is the year he decides if he's a starter or not - he has mcbride and mhj getting the bulk of attention - wilson needs to be open a lot this year - he needs route perfection - basically his balls need to dropI'm a huge Michael Wilson fan but he also needs to take that next step.
