With that being said, here are four Commanders players with soaring stock ahead of training camp in 2023.
Chris Paul - Commanders OL
Saahdiq Charles is being penciled in as the starting left guard on the Washington Commanders' revamped offensive line, but head coach Ron Rivera has given Chris Paul a confidence boost by claiming that he isn't that far behind after early workouts. Something that comes relatively out of the blue given how little the former seventh-rounder was involved as a rookie.
Paul boasts the position versatility Rivera loves and has clearly made strides since entering the league. Whether it's enough to unseat Charles remains to be seen, but it's a nice problem for the Commanders to have within a position group in dire need of improvements.
