Washington Commanders

Larceny in pick No. 236 lands the Commanders a F, Simon and all.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cody Simon tumbling to the Commanders in pick 236 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Reaching for Jackson left real value on the table behind him. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher and quarterback went begging.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with edge rusher still staring back at them.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.29 · Pick 29 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 23
In the Round 1 slot they get a wrecking ball inside. A clean fit for the roster.
R1.30 · Pick 30 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 43
In pick No. 30 they get a seam-stretching tight end, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R1.32 · Pick 32 · Josh Conerly Jr. · OT · rank 45
In the 32nd pick they get a blindside protector, even if it was a touch early. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Donovan Jackson · OT · rank 84
Donovan Jackson at the 56th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Matthew Golden · WR · rank 44
A tidy bit of business in slot 59, where Matthew Golden graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R2.29 · Pick 61 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 22
Jalon Walker in No. 61 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Malaki Starks · S · rank 17
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at Round 2, Pick 32. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 38
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Jihaad Campbell adds a linebacker and leaves edge rusher and quarterback untouched.
R4.35 · Pick 136 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 60
TreVeyon Henderson at No. 136 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.9 · Pick 146 · Kalel Mullings · RB · rank 104
They robbed the room for Kalel Mullings here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
R6.28 · Pick 203 · Jaylin Smith · CB · rank 222
Jaylin Smith in pick No. 203 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.20 · Pick 236 · Cody Simon · LB · rank 121
Cody Simon in slot 236 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R7.31 · Pick 247 · Woody Marks · RB · rank 174
Woody Marks at the Round 7 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
