Washington Commanders Film Analyst Mark Bullock joins the Trap or Dive Podcast to breakdown Washington’s top draft picks

Mark Bullock joins the Trap or Dive podcast on this episode! Mark provides his player profiles for five of Washington’s top 100 selections in this draft recap. We discuss our film takeaways and their projections as rookies. Johnny Newton, in particular, exceeded Bullock’s expectations as he watched his film; we took time dissecting Newton’s impact as a rookie and what that could mean for Jonathan Allen and Daron Payne. Neither Mark nor I place any expectations on Newton in this episode, but his tape, according to Mark, was as clean as it could get.

Listen to the whole discussion with Mark Bullock below. We discuss:

  • Projecting Jayden Daniels as a pro-QB: Strengths, Weaknesses, undervalued pocket presence
  • Johnny Newton may be an instant difference-maker: Best alignment fit, trades on the horizon?
  • Mike Sainristil profile: Coverage strengths and weaknesses and potential frame concerns
  • Ben Sinnott’s projection in Kliff Kingsbury’s offense. What to expect from Sinnott and his versatility.
  • Brandon Coleman profile: Starting level Tackle traits, but can he overtake Cornelius Lucas as a rookie?
