Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedA- TradesC FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Commanders, and a B- to prove it.

Some picks age like wine; Malik Muhammad at the 69th overall pick will need to, sitting 26 spots clear of his grade.

However the rest shakes out, Wheatley at that price is a win they earned. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In the Round 1 slot they get a true top target at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Malik Muhammad
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Malik Muhammad. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Zakee Wheatley
A safety of that caliber at the 106th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Circle this one: Logan Jones at pick 108 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Fair-plus on Harold Perkins Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick147 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens in Round 5, Pick 7 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock at the 187th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198 Rnd6 Zxavian Harris
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zxavian Harris well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jeff Caldwell in the Round 7 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
