Whoever sat across the table from the Commanders should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The cost of the Logue reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

That Phillips pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Olumuyiwa Fashanu and all.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.6 · Pick 6 · Olumuyiwa Fashanu · OT · rank 10
In the 6th pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 28
A slide stopped in pick No. 36, with Troy Fautanu worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Kamren Kinchens · S · rank 37
They took Kamren Kinchens at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 39
Bralen Trice at slot 40 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Ja'Tavion Sanders · TE · rank 55
Ja'Tavion Sanders at Round 3, Pick 3 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 78
A reach for Cooper Beebe in pick 70; a little patience would have been rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Marshawn Kneeland · DE-EDGE · rank 106
Marshawn Kneeland in No. 100 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · DeWayne Carter · DT · rank 101
They did well to land DeWayne Carter in the 104th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 134
Kamal Hadden at Round 5, Pick 5 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Andru Phillips · CB · rank 167
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Andru Phillips at pick 181. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · Zion Logue · DL · rank 241
Value said wait; Zion Logue in the 223rd pick says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
