The real work happened on the phones. The Commanders fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Ulofoshio. Every board in the league had Frazier lower, and that gap is the story.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.25 · Pick 25 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 39
In pick 25 they get a long-term starter on the line, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 35
They paid sticker price for Chop Robinson in pick No. 36, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Devontez Walker · WR · rank 46
They took Devontez Walker at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Zach Frazier · C · rank 65
They reached into another round for Zach Frazier, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Payton Wilson · LB · rank 70
They jumped the gun on Payton Wilson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Javon Bullard · S · rank 66
Javon Bullard in the 67th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in pick No. 100; it is a wash and a sensible one. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Ray Davis · RB · rank 109
A straight-up fair deal on Ray Davis at Round 4, Pick 2, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Theo Johnson · TE · rank 150
They paid a round early for Theo Johnson in the 141st pick, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Edefuan Ulofoshio · LB · rank 156
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · Trevor Keegan · OG · rank 234
Trevor Keegan at pick 223 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
