The Washington Commanders selected Oregon offensive tackle Josh Conerly Jr. with the No. 29 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, Bryan Manning of Commanders Wire reports.
With several edge rushers remaining on the board, Washington chose to reinforce the offensive line with the selection of the 21-year-old Conerly. Earlier this offseason, the Commanders sent multiple draft picks to the Houston Texans for five-time Pro Bowl offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil. With Tunsil locking down the left side, Conerly's future, at least initially, will be at right tackle.
