I think J.P. is getting swept up in commanders free agency euphoria because now he's kind of

couchy at a little bit. Says he wants to bet on the commanders to be above 500 in 2024.

And I'm ready to take his bet.

I said, I gotta see what happens in the draft.

And then the rest of the off season,

but I think Cowboys sliding back, yeah back and a team like the commanders will rise up and I think it might be the commanders.

They're going to have a good draft just based on where they're drafting and it round. So in terms of where the prospect

ranks are, they're going to have a good draft. And I also think I don't know how those guys play

out in the NFL. I also think one thing that Jason has pointed out many times is they should have better coaching.

Right. Absolutely. So that should give you just a couple of win. 100% chance.

150% and that's not even possible.

Let's get our next guest take on that. Ben Standig covers the commanders for the athletic.

Am I being swept up by a free agent euphoria, Ben?

Well, um, look, this is the time for optimism, the off season, everything is possible and what combines

the fact that it's a new everything here, here you know sure go for why not have you

been surprised by the amount of activity oh. I mean think of it like this I mean they they have over 20 something free agents

from last year not all those guys are you know definitely going to be would definitely be

back around the 53 but you know that's the list over 20 something they haven't

re-signed a single one of those players but they've now signed 12. They still have to sign more just to break even if they actually didn't sign anybody.

So I think there could be, I mean I'm just sort of speculating off the top of my head but there could be another 10 more coming I mean it easily I would think because just purely from the roster you know they're not going to bring guys back I'm sure they'll sign some but like if they're not going to bring back more than

a handful that they have to supplement the roster so I think it should be a bunch more.

The question obviously is it just pure like rank and file or are they going to make, you know, potential notable additions, you know, that make ESPN, you know, that's the deal.
