The Washington Commanders will look much different in 2024. Not only does Washington have a new general manager (Adam Peters), a new coaching staff led by Dan Quinn, but the Commanders have signed over 20 outside free agents thus far.

Washington will add several more players to the roster next week. The Commanders currently hold nine picks in the 2024 NFL draft and will add more after the draft.

How much better can we expect the Commanders to be in 2024? They’ll be better than their 4-13 mark from last season, and facing a last-place schedule should help things, too. Speaking of that schedule, Sharp Football Analysis ranked every NFL team by its strength of schedule using the projected win totals set by oddsmakers.

Where are the Commanders? What about the rest of the NFC East?
