The Commanders received three offers for the 29th selection:
- WASH trades picks 29 & 245 for picks 35 & 103 from the Titans
- WASH trades pick 29 for picks 33 & 179 from the Browns
- WASH trades picks 29 & 128 for picks 55 & 86 (2025) and 2nd & 3rd (2026) from the Chargers
Paulsen pointed out that the Commanders need some more draft capital, having traded a fifth-rounder for Deebo Samuel. They are down three selections after the Laremy Tunsil trade. Paulsen felt the Chargers trade was valuable because it would recoup two more selections for the Commanders next season.
