New Target Emerging for the Commanders Ahead of NFL Trade Deadline
For weeks now people have been clamoring for Washington Commanders general manager Adam Peters to make a trade.
Specifically, those who have a vested interest in the Commanders’ continued success have wanted Peters and head coach Dan Quinn to add a cornerback and/or edge rusher.
Names like Carolina Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn and Cleveland Browns corner Greg Newsome II have been thrown out there as potential targets. But if Peters had made that trade in the past two weeks, then he couldn’t make a move to bring New Orleans Saints star Marshon Lattimore to Washington.
“While the Saints fired Dennis Allen after a seven-game losing streak, it doesn’t sound like it’ll be a firesale before tomorrow’s trade deadline,” NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported Monday evening. “They have gotten calls and could move the likes of CB Marshon Lattimore. But a widespread selloff seems unlikely.”
While New Orleans may not be selling all of its pieces, the Commanders would likely only be interested in the one – the one Pelissero says might be available.
Now, the conflict here comes in the form of compensation. In their trade pitch sending Lattimore to Washington, 33rd Team presented an idea of sending a 2025 3rd Round NFL Draft pick to the Saints for the cornerback.
Doing so would leave the Commanders with one in the third round as they have two currently stemming from the trade of receiver Jahan Dotson. In theory, that could possibly turn trading Dotson and a 5th-round pick in next year’s draft to the Philadelphia Eagles for Lattimore and two 2025 7th-round picks. It’s not a bad deal if you ask us.
Lattimore turns 29 years old next May and was a first-round pick by New Orleans in the 2017 NFL Draft.
While he hasn’t recorded an interception this season he has 15 in his career and at least one in every year he’s played up to now.
He’s a four-time Pro Bowl cornerback and is under contract through 2026 but has no guaranteed money left following this season and less than $1 million still due on his guarantees this season.
Following its bye week in Week 14 of the season, Washington visits the Saints in New Orleans.

A 26-year-old man had an argument with a co-worker before allegedly fatally shooting the colleague in Washington Heights, prosecutors said Friday.
Bobby Martin, who was charged with first-degree murder Thursday, made his first appearance Friday in Cook County court.
Martin, is accused of killing his co-worker, Antoine Alexander, 32, in a parking lot at 9411 S Ashland Ave about 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday, according to Chicago police.
Prosecutors said Martin and Alexander worked together at an armed security company and got into a verbal altercation inside the guard shack on Tuesday afternoon. During the altercation, prosecutors said Alexander removed his bullet proof vest and threw it to the ground. A witness, another co-worker, then told the defendant and the victim to take the altercation outside.
After stepping outside, the defendant pulled his firearm and fired one shot into the victims abdomen, prosecutors said. The victim’s firearm was holstered at the time of the argument and the shooting. The defendant fled the scene and came into contact with another co-worker, whom he told that he had just shot Alexander.
Alexander was then taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead.
Martin was arrested by authorities three blocks from his home approximately 20 minutes after the shooting, prosecutors said.
Martin was detained and will appear in court again on March 17, authorities said.

Washington Spirit goalkeeper Aubrey Kingsbury has announced that she and her husband Matt are expecting a baby in July.
The couple made the announcement in a video on the Spirit’s social media channels, holding a baby goalkeeper jersey on the pitch at Audi Field.
Kingsbury becomes the most recent Spirit star to go on maternity leave, following defender Casey Krueger, midfielder Andi Sullivan and forward Ashley Hatch.
Sullivan gave birth to daughter Millie in July, while Hatch welcomed her son Leo in January.
Krueger announced she was pregnant with her second child in October.
Kingsbury has served as the Spirit’s starting goalkeeper since 2018, and has been named the NWSL Goalkeeper of the Year twice (2019 and 2021).
The 34-year-old has two caps with the U.S. women’s national team, and was named to the 2023 World Cup roster.
The club captain will leave a major void for the Spirit, who have finished as NWSL runner-up in back-to-back seasons.
Sandy MacIver and Kaylie Collins are expected to compete for the starting role while Kingsbury is on maternity leave.
The Spirit kick off their 2026 campaign on March 13 against the Portland Thorns.
YAKIMA, Wash. — Yakima could soon take a major step toward redesigning Sixth Avenue after the Washington State Public Works Board awarded the city a $985,600 loan.
The loan was approved for the design engineering phase of the Sixth Avenue project. The funding can also be used along Sixth Avenue for utility replacement and updated ADA use.
The Yakima City Council must decide whether to accept the award. If the council accepts it, the city’s engineering work will move forward with the design of Sixth Avenue.
The cost of installing trolley lines is excluded from the plan. The historic trolleys would need to raise the funds required to add trolley lines.
The award is scheduled to be discussed during next week’s City Council meeting.
