From wellness and culture to affordability and the job market bankrate has released its annual best and worst metros for first time homebuyer study, and D.C. came in last. The place it was kind of surprising and that really dragged down the D.C. metro area was the job market, right? Jeff ostrovsky is an analyst with bankrate. He says soaring home prices during the pandemic haven't come down much and make the transition from renting to buying difficulties. That's something that millennials throughout the country are facing, but it's especially acute in the higher price markets.

The whole history of the team, the entire history of the team. I mean, you can make the case for Albert haynesworth, right? Yeah. But this was more money on the line. You gave up draft picks and you could not sign some key players that could have helped you in some other places. What about Rex and becks? Those are a couple of those were low hanging fruit right there. This was a whole tree that fell. Carson Wentz after just one season. He only played 8 games just long enough to post the league's second worst QBR 5th worst passer rating among starting quarterbacks all for the high price of two quality draft picks at $28 million cap hits that prevented them as I said from upgrading some other key positions. Bobby McCain also released today the veteran safety at a down season following a breakout 2021, but that was mainly due to the rise of some younger options at his position, both veteran cuts, open up more than $30 million in cap space for Washington about two weeks before the start of the new league year.

"Ready for a game in Indianapolis, where the colts will be breaking in a new quarterback in second year passer Sam ellinger, now Bobby McCain, it's fair to ask you, how do you prepare for a quarterback that's never thrown in NFL pass, let alone started a game. Watch what he does. You know, the product he played a lot in the preseason, being the backup. So, you know, you can try to just get a feel for his eyes, get a feel for how he moves and what he's doing and what you think they made though. You can only, I mean, at this point, it's only hoping and wishing that we know we're going to but when we get out there, that's when we'll really know after the first series or so and we'll get a fill of things and what do you want to do? Headlining the injury listed practice, Washington without starters Jahan Dodson and Cole holcomb, Logan Thomas diamond Brown, they were among those limited, the Baltimore Ravens and Tampa Bay for the Thursday night or against the struggling bucks Kalia's Campbell will be sidelined the team ruling him out due to illness and the NFL trade deadline right around the corner a week from Tuesday and the undefeated Philadelphia Eagles getting veteran pass rusher Robert Quinn from the Chicago Bears for a fourth round pick according to ESPN. It's the third time in Quinn's career he's been traded so he's kind of used to this sort of thing. He has been reporting also that Mac Jones will be the starting quarterback of the Patriots, the wizards announced today as part of the franchise's 25th anniversary celebration, the trio of Gilbert arenas caron butler and Anton Jameson will be honored at the game against the Miami heats on November the 18th Butler happens to be an assistant coach for Miami.

"Because Washington faces a much easier schedule of past protecting offensive lines. The secondary. I do think you see an uptick there, right? Schedule, passing offenses, regresses at the highest rate in the league year over year. William Jackson had a down year after signing a large contract ward is. Feels more comfortable in Jack Del Rio's scheme. And we kind of saw that improvement from him as the season went on last year. I mean, he was horrific early on. But then he only allowed 0.48 yards per coverage snap his final 6 games of the season. So I think that bodes well for him kind of starting in a good spot and carrying that momentum forward. Bobby McCain became expendable for Miami after Jones and Holland proved they were ready to go pretty early on in their career so Washington signed him late in free agency last season. He was solid. Cameron curl went from 2020 7th round pick to starter. He was solid in the run game in a sure tackler, but he's not a liability and coverage either. So that was a good combination. Linebacker room is the horse unit on the defense. But if John and Davis can improve in year two, that will go a long ways. Can't possibly be worse than last season. And then about 18 hours ago, Washington signed Nate Gary to help with that unit. So overall here, Todd, stock arrow up on Washington's defense. Hey, it's a good thing for people that are fans of one of the more dysfunctional organizations. And it's amazing that we can say that about not just the New York Giants, but also the Washington commanders for everything that goes on on the field. And off the field, but clearly these teams benefit immensely from schedules that are relatively favorable going forward. So we'll see who can emerge atop the heap in a division where everyone is bunched up within three three and a half wins of one another with three teams in that ten and a half or 9 and a half, 8 and a half range if you include Dallas, Philadelphia, and Washington. The NFC east, it's a division that hails in a number of key media markets, but you may not see that much football prowess. We did everything we could to break down some of the most compelling angles from a team storyline standpoint and personnel as you head towards the 2022 season.

"That. The whole thing with josh norman. He's not traveling and tonio. Brown jackson is someone who potentially can do that. And what that could mean for the defense. I think is pretty intriguing. Yeah look they had A highly ranked pass defense last year. And you said it. I think a lot of that had to do with the opponents in the backup quarterbacks in the third string quarterbacks they were playing. I don't think it has anything to do with zone versus man. There are a lot of zone teams that get torched And end up on the wrong side of that. But you know it's not just as. I'm sure you've talked about and i talked about A lot The quarterbacks that they're going to be facing this year to your point there are so many star receivers the hair going to be facing this upcoming season. You know you start with keenan allen then you get you know you get a digs in week three Well yet golladay in the second game digs in the third game. You get michael. Thomas potentially get torri kill you get devante atoms. You get mike evans. You get decay metcalf you get you know. Lamb amari cooper. They're going to have to be a better. You know they're going to have to have a guy that can really cover Or they're potentially gonna get torched by some really good offenses. But i think it still comes back to Against any of these teams. They've got to establish a much better. And more consistent run defense. And i think all of that will lead to you. Know what ron rivera said the day he got here. Which is we're going to stop the run on the way to the quarterback and pass rush. You know helps everything By the way. I agree i fitzpatrick is the answer for that. I have i mean. I hope that he's the most valuable off season acquisition. If he isn't then they're probably not going to be a double digit win. Team i guess taylor heineke and or kyle allen could step in and lead them to something Significant if it's not fitzpatrick. But i think the answer to that is ryan fitzpatrick. This is a roster. Al that i think people are as confident in the overall strength of the roster As they've been in a long long time with that said who among the projected starters. And i'm talking mostly veterans because we don't know what jamieson davis is Who concerns you the most. Well i do wonder about someone like charles leno they bring him in. He got released by the bears. I know just because you get released. That doesn't mean that you're a terrible player. But there's a reason you get released you know we've seen washington get burned by this kind of thing in the past where the team brings in someone who whose name recognize who you know has had success. You say geez how come that guy was available and he comes here and he's a shell of what it used to be. You know whether you're talking about ryan clark second. Go round our member. When jim has what was it. Offensive coordinator the free safety that he loved this guy at talk way. Watch them and he wasn't he wasn't close to being what he was so i do wonder a bit about leno and you know not that. I think he's going to be a train wreck. There's a reason he got. Let go but like you have to say all right. He's gonna be playing left tackle. Is he going to be good at that spot. So that's sort of thing. I wonder about you know along the same line someone like bobby mccain like i look at bobby mccain and i'd say man. There's a lot to like about this guy. Why did the dolphin let them go. And then i'm like the dolphins were smart team. The dolphins seven offensive minded head coach bryant. Laura's wet they just doing a really good job they obviously had their reasons for that. So if bobby mccain and being the door to restate the or end up playing a lot at nickel corner which he's done in the past Is he up to the task. Or the dolphins realize something with bobby mccain that maybe the rest of us did not. You know it interesting. The contract that washington gave mccain is like nothing contract though there wasn't a big market for mccain. So just things like that right like would you when you gobble up those who've been discarded by others always have to wonder about why were those guys discarded by the others. Yeah i mean look you you you could. You could make the case that ryan fitzpatrick has had all of these opportunities and yet every single team he's ever been on. They've always been looking for a better looking blonde basically then him so you know that that is I think we're excited. Because the quarterback play was so bad. And he's coming off two of his better years of his career really the two best years of his career. And you know he's got some of that leadership in some swag in the whole thing But those that are skeptical. Have good reason. I think to be skeptical. I just think we're catching him in a more. I guess a more optimistic that we're catching him at. Maybe you know The the the biggest moment of his career and maybe the best moment of his career. I'm just going to say that i. I don't know why this team continues to put as much faith in to their kicker Like they have. This is the second straight coaching staff. That is totally bought in to dustin hopkins. This year is going to be a year that if they do have a good team end up with a good record more likely than not..
