Washington Commanders

The Commanders drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B+.

Future B-

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Commanders committed. Jayden Daniels is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The Solomon pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with interior defensive lineman still on the board.

Cooper has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. On value alone, Jordan makes the weekend a net positive.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.6 · Pick 6 · Jayden Daniels · QB · rank 8
In the 6th overall pick they get a passer to set the clock by. A clean fit for the roster.
R1.27 · Pick 27 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 25
They took Jordan Morgan at par in pick No. 27, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.3 · Pick 35 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 35
Chop Robinson in Round 2, Pick 3 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 38
By-the-book stuff, T.J. Tampa at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Edgerrin Cooper · LB · rank 58
Edgerrin Cooper in slot 39 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Ja'Tavion Sanders · TE · rank 54
A reach for Ja'Tavion Sanders in the 40th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Malachi Corley · WR · rank 79
Malachi Corley in No. 67 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 103
Dominick Puni in pick 100 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Javon Solomon · OLB-EDGE · rank 108
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Javon Solomon adds an OLB-EDGE and leaves interior defensive lineman untouched.
R4.4 · Pick 104 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
No edge and no loss on Khyree Jackson in pick 104; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R5.5 · Pick 141 · Luke McCaffrey · QB · rank 141
Luke McCaffrey at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Michael Barrett · LB · rank 183
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Barrett at pick No. 181, value and slot in agreement. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R7.3 · Pick 223 · Jawhar Jordan · RB · rank 209
Nice patience on Jawhar Jordan, who had no business lasting to No. 223. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
