Commanders Draft Sonny Styles, Speed Injection
Description
The Washington Commanders selected Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles with the seventh overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Standing at six feet five and 244 pounds, Styles brings elite size, an 81-inch wingspan, and impressive speed (4.46 40-yard dash). A versatile player who transitioned from safety to linebacker, Styles excels in coverage, missing only two tackles last season. The Commanders defense struggled last year, ranking 30th with 6 yards per play, so Styles addition, along with free agency signings, aims to boost their playmaking abilities. Styles leadership and athleticism, along with his potential to contribute in various roles, make him an exciting pick for the Commanders.
