The Washington Commanders selected Ole Miss cornerback Trey Amos with the 61st overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft. The 6-foot-1 cornerback was viewed as a first-round prospect by many throughout the pre-draft process and Washington landed Amos at the end of the second round.
Amos joins a cornerback room that features Marshon Lattimore, Mike Sainristil, Jonathan Jones and Noah Igbinoghene. One year ago, the Commanders entered training camp with a cornerback room consisting of the rookie Sainristil, free-agent acquisition Igbinoghene, Benjamin St-Juste, Emmanuel Forbes and Michael Davis. General manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn have completely flipped Washington’s cornerback position.
The selection of Amos was widely praised across the NFL. Let’s look at several reactions to Washington’s selection of Trey Amos.

Fun fact: Recent Commanders DB acquisitions, Jonathan Jones and Trey Amos both played some college ball under DB coach Travaris Robinson.
Robinson was a coach with Dan Quinn at Florida, and teammates with Joe Whitt Jr at Auburn#RaiseHail

‘Fantastic pick’
Fantastic pick. I’ve been saying for weeks that Boundary CB was a huge need. Just like taking Conerly upgraded 2 OL spots, taking Amos upgrades 2 spots as it allows Mikey back inside. Love this pick https://t.co/V4IssRf9qo

One move makes two positions better
These two draft picks (Conerly and Amos) feel like we improved at four positions.
Conerly takes RT and Coleman goes to LG. Two spots on the O-line improved.
Amos goes to Outside CB, Sainristil goes back inside. Two spots in the secondary improved.
And, Harris > Chinn at S!

From WalterFootball:
Washington Redskins: Trey Amos, CB, Ole Miss – A+ Grade
Another A+ plus pick from a team in the I-95 corridor. Trey Amos is a tall cornerback with great speed and athleticism. I’ve had him in the first round of many of my mock drafts, so I love this pick.…— Ken Johannesen (@BurgundyBurner) April 26, 2025
Amazing value
The #Commanders are taking Ole Miss CB Trey Amos at No. 61… which is just amazing value. pic.twitter.com/TKeIejLgFQ

No one is disappointed with this pick
I’m feeling Trey Amos.

Amos is a good fit with his length; can play press and zone. Played at 3 schools: Louisiana; Alabama and Ole Miss (Pete Golding recruited him at Bama and went to Ole Miss).
