The Commanders treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 59 on Jordan Burch a full 51 spots early. A weekend to file away and forget, and an F to match.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Henderson. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.
They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.
There is no spinning it; the board won this weekend going away.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
In the 14th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jordan Burch well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Tyler Warren at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
TreVeyon Henderson at No. 146 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Sonny Styles in Round 6, Pick 27 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Ollie Gordon II in the 235th pick, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Micah Morris at the 246th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
