When Ronald Darby was signed last March, not many people were optimistic about the prospects of him starting at Cornerback for the WFT. An under-the-radar and productive season however may have extended Darby’s stay in the nation’s capital. With his one year deal up, here’s what we’d do:

Jess:
For the second year in a row, Washington took a flyer on a low-risk, high-reward player and it paid off again. There has been reported mutual interest in a Darby return, but the question is always about money. In all honesty I’m not sure what Darby could net on the open market, what his asking price will be and what Washington is willing to pay. I’ve seen prices get thrown out all over the place, but Washington still should be able to hold onto him after being a good contributor to the defense. I am interested in possibly upgrading CB whether that be in the draft or free agency, but I think the team plays it safe and brings back the guy they took a chance on.

Verdict:
Stay—2yr/15m, 6.5m GTD

Justin:
Ronald Darby came to D.C. on a one-year deal with very low expectations. He completely turned his career around in my opinion though. He may not be a Pro Bowl corner or at the top of his position group, but he had a very solid year. Ideally, the team would be able to add another veteran in free agency or draft a corner to compete with Darby, but I would be confident in him if he went into the 2021 season as the starter. However, you can’t break the bank to sign him. Spotrac currently has his market value at $10.4M per year on a 4-year deal. That’s a very high number for him in my opinion and I would be very surprised if he actually got close to that type of contract. I see Darby as a really good fit in a role similar to Bashaud Breeland on the Chiefs but a bit more expensive.

Verdict:
Stay—2yr/11.2m, 4.5m GTD
