The Commanders lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

Caleb Williams gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. Getting Coleman where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

Will Hernandez gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, tight end very much included.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.2 · Pick 2 · Caleb Williams · QB · rank 2
In the 2nd overall pick they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
R1.23 · Pick 23 · Kool-Aid McKinstry · CB · rank 25
In the 23rd pick they get an island corner at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 35
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Morgan at pick 36 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.2 · Pick 66 · Junior Colson · LB · rank 50
A tidy bit of business in No. 66, where Junior Colson graded well above the range. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Keon Coleman · WR · rank 36
Keon Coleman at pick No. 67 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.7 · Pick 71 · Calen Bullock · S · rank 75
Calen Bullock at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 104
They took Zak Zinter at par in slot 101, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Bucky Irving · RB · rank 93
Bucky Irving is a better player than Round 4, Pick 3 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.2 · Pick 138 · Marcus Harris · DE-EDGE · rank 141
They paid sticker price for Marcus Harris in slot 138, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R6.6 · Pick 181 · Ty'Ron Hopper · LB · rank 177
They did well to land Ty'Ron Hopper in the 181st overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
R6.45 · Pick 220 · Kendall Milton · RB · rank 190
The board fumbled Kendall Milton all the way to pick 220, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
