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 board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Mims falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In the end it comes back to Jayden Daniels, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.8 · Pick 8 · Jayden Daniels · QB · rank 8
In pick 8 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Amarius Mims · OT · rank 20
The board had Amarius Mims higher than No. 36, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.8 · Pick 40 · Chop Robinson · DE-EDGE · rank 37
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chop Robinson in Round 2, Pick 8. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Ja'Tavion Sanders · TE · rank 47
They paid sticker price for Ja'Tavion Sanders in the 43rd pick, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
