Which Washington Commanders’ news stories are hitting the headlines with plenty of important matters still to be decided by the organization in 2023?

With almost two weeks remaining until the 2023 NFL Draft, things are heating up for the Washington Commanders as preparations gather pace for the upcoming campaign. Some important workout dates are on the immediate horizon, which is the next big stage in the planning process before the regular season commences.

Among the stories making waves recently include a gifted linebacker visiting the Commanders, Mel Kiper Jr.’s two-round mock draft, another Mac Jones rumor, and Terry McLaurin’s level of intent next season.

Let’s delve into each topic in more detail.

Commanders set to host talented LB

The Washington Commanders are casting their net far and wide in pursuit of improving their fortunes during the draft. Many prospects of interest are currently engaged with those in power on top 30 visits, which also include a gifted linebacker expected to be taken in the mid-rounds.

According to Ben Standig of The Athletic, the Commanders will get the chance to find out more about Dorian Williams. The prospect was a key cog in Tulane’s remarkable campaign in 2022 and has a lot of transferable traits to potentially start with further refinement.

Williams does all the little things well. His outstanding production on tape was matched by a decent showing at the NFL Scouting Combine, so it’s well worth Washington investigating further.
