Washington Commanders

Nobody dealt better than the Commanders this weekend: A-.

Future A+

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Commanders came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Getting Liufau where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Commanders paired the rookies with proven help, Davante Adams leading the way.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Troy Fautanu and all.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Troy Fautanu · OT · rank 29
Troy Fautanu at the 36th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Bralen Trice · DE-EDGE · rank 37
Good price on Bralen Trice in slot 40, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R2.13 · Pick 45 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 40
Tyler Guyton in Round 2, Pick 13 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Ja'Tavion Sanders · TE · rank 54
Ja'Tavion Sanders at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.19 · Pick 83 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 77
A tidy little value on Cooper Beebe in pick No. 83, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.1 · Pick 101 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 86
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Marist Liufau in No. 101. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.3 · Pick 103 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
They paid sticker price for Khyree Jackson in the 103rd overall pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.2 · Pick 138 · Jordan Travis · QB · rank 136
Jordan Travis at pick 138 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.15 · Pick 151 · Kamal Hadden · CB · rank 138
Kamal Hadden slid further than he should have, and No. 151 is lovely value for the cornerback. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R6.13 · Pick 188 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 175
A slide stopped in pick No. 188, with Roger Rosengarten worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R6.16 · Pick 191 · Jaylen Harrell · DE-EDGE · rank 201
They went early on Jaylen Harrell in Round 6, Pick 16, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R6.45 · Pick 220 · Omar Speights · LB · rank 208
Omar Speights in slot 220 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R7.2 · Pick 222 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 217
Jase McClellan in the 222nd pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
R7.15 · Pick 235 · Steele Chambers · LB · rank 231
A reasonable price with a little left over, Steele Chambers in the 235th overall pick. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
