Commanders land Tennessee edge rusher James Pearce in new mock draft
"Dorance Armstrong has been a steady, reliable pass rusher for Washington under Dan Quinn, but the unit lacks depth and needs another dynamic presence to take it to the next level.

– New A to Z Sports mock draft
Heading into this college football season, there were many projecting for Tennessee's James Pearce to be in consideration for the number one overall pick.

His combo of speed and strength points toward him being a great fit for the NFL level. While he may not be considered for the number one pick, I think the Commanders would be ecstatic if a player of his talent level was available. He would be an immediate help on pass downs, and Dan Quinn and his staff would have to work on him becoming a defensive lineman who can play all three downs.

It's what really makes the team's 8-5 record so impressive. Even when including the three-game losing streak, Quinn and co. have overachieved in a big way as they continue […]
