JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey were TOGETHER in ASHBURN today (for the first time since Eric Bieniemy's introduction) for Ron Rivera and Martin Mayhew's pre-draft press conference, and that presser formed the basis of this Beltway Football. During their time with one another, the guys pass on their primary takeaways from the event, continue to predict that Chase Young's option will not be picked up and have a discussion about whether Bijan Robinson makes any sense at all for the Commanders. After they say goodbye, Pete welcomes on Joey Wagner, an Illinois football reporter, for an all-encompassing interview about highly-touted draft prospect Devon Witherspoon. If you like podcasts where Pete is feeling-feeling himself and JP expresses optimism that Washington is gonna ace their first-round process, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey turned to the listeners to provide the fuel for this Beltway Football, as they answer three questions from those who follow @BeltwayFootball on Twitter.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey have one finalized trade and one potential trade to cover in this Beltway Football installment. First, they look at the deal between Detroit and Atlanta involving Jeff Okudah, who was drafted one slot after Chase Young in 2020. Does that swap matter at all to Washington and Young? From there, they discuss Bucs linebacker Devin White, who's apparently unhappy with his situation in Tampa. Is that a guy the Commanders ought to go after? Lastly, Pete welcomes on Jeff Ermann, who has covered University of Maryland sports for years and kindly passes along all you need to know about cornerback Deonte Banks, who might be appealing to Ron Rivera and Jack Del Rio. If you like podcasts where karma comes for Mitch and JP provides a scintillating update of his spring break, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey spend the bulk of their time on this Beltway Football by discussing how Jeff Bezos could fit into the ongoing ownership story. Is he simply waiting in the weeds or is he truly not interested? The guys also touch briefly on their preferred outcomes for the Commanders at pick No. 16 in the Draft. From there, they toss to Pete's interview with University of Georgia expert Seth Emerson, who provides really strong insight into tight end Darnell Washington and tackle Broderick Jones, two guys who make a lot of sense for Washington. And to close, JP, Mitch and Pete return for career day and baseball-related shtick. If you like podcasts where football reporters converse about the 1987 Brewers, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey start this Beltway Football by chatting about Magic Johnson's recent comments regarding he and his group's pursuit of the Commanders. From there, they then transition to a pair of QB-related topics involving Mac Jones and Hendon Hooker. The former revolves around a report(-ish) about Washington being a potential landing spot for Jones if he's traded, while the latter focuses on Hooker's upcoming visit with the club and whether he's a viable draft target. Then, they toss to a scrum that Ron Rivera did with a few reporters on Tuesday, which includes a question from Pete that attempts to get to the bottom of Rivera's controversial "roster building" answer. And to close, the hosts return to hand out their Masters picks and generally touch on their love of golf. If you like podcasts where JP educates Pete about Magic Johnson's greatness and there's a disagreement over one of Rivera's answers about Chase Young's knee, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay and Pete Hailey are sans Mitch Tischler (he'll be back soon, don't worry) but aren't sans quality topics in this installment of Beltway Football (yep, you read that right!). The duo quickly explains the program's new name before getting into it, beginning with a quick chat about Robert Griffin III saying he's interested in joining Josh Harris' ownership group. From there, JP and Pete come to an agreement on the "Should the Commanders pick up Chase Young's fifth-year option?" conversation and, lastly, JP reacts to Pete's list of five positions the club absolutely should NOT address in the first round of the NFL Draft. To close, you'll hear JP's one-on-one with team president Jason Wright, where Wright explains how the ownership situation is impacting his day-to-day. If you like podcasts where the name changes but the quality content does not, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey kick off this Washington Football Talk by discussing the fact that Dan Snyder reportedly has a true bid on the table for his franchise. That's certainly the most important topic to get to. However, there's also the fact that the Commanders shut down any and all rumors about a possible pursuit of Lamar Jackson as well as audio from Martin Mayhew's entire Monday presser from league meetings for you to consume. And — this isn't a joke, by the way — Mike Garafolo of NFL Network stops by and ends up filing his toenail live on the show. If you like podcasts where Mike Garafolo of NFL Network stops by and ends up filing his toenail live on the show, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey commence this Washington Football Talk by chatting about Steve Apostolopoulos, who's reportedly yet another name in the Commanders' ownership hunt. After covering Steve A's arrival, the guys move onto Anthony Walker's visit but lack of signing — which features a JP-produced theory that Pete disagrees with and eventually angers JP because of his disagreement — before answering a draft question that Pete poses: Will Washington draft a tight end OR corner in the first round, or will they go with any other position on the board? That segues into a larger-scale conversation about how Ron Rivera is (and should be) approaching the 2023 campaign. And finally, you'll hear JP's recent interview with the newly-signed Andrew Wylie, who provides awesome insight on Eric Bieniemy. If you like podcasts where one host totally leaves the other two out to dry and Wylie details his relationship with Christmas trees, then this is the episode for you.
