The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Commanders watched Andres Borregales slide 111 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.
They are betting Riley proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick 29 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Alfred Collins in slot 61 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
They will replay Tyler Warren at No. 79 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Quincy Riley. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Quinn Carroll this early at the 203rd overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Batty in the 236th pick, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
A specialist of that caliber at pick No. 247 is the definition of value, full stop. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
