Commanders Star Terry McLaurin Shares Vision for Team's First Round Selection

There has been much to make about what the Washington Commanders will do with the seventh overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, and we will soon find out what exactly that game plan is once the draft gets underway and players start to be selected.

General manager Adam Peters hasn't given any hints as to the battle plan in the first round, but it's seemingly come down to two options: trade back and acquire draft capital or stay put and acquire one of the draft's top players.

Many have let their thoughts be known on what they think Washington should do, but for the first time, we are hearing from a player inside the locker room. In a recent sit-down on the "Built Different Podcast", star wide receiver Terry McLaurin talked plenty of things non-football related, but also dove a bit into what he thinks the team could do when they are on the clock.

Best Player Available

"I think we're in a very unique situation, I think we could go best player available," McLaurin said. "We've done a really good job in free agency so far. When you get that top-10 pick, I think another receiver, [Notre Dame RB] Jeremiyah Love, there's some great Buckeye defensive players, as well. I think we'll probably go best player available."

No one seems to know what the Commanders will do when they are up, with pundits being all over the place when it comes to their mock drafts, but McLaurin understands the unique situation the team is in, thanks to a successful offseason.
