Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureA
More right than wrong for the Commanders, and a B to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Terion Stewart at the 187th pick, a reach of 22 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Stowers pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In pick 22 they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
They took Jake Slaughter at par in pick No. 55, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at Round 3, Pick 7 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick123 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
The board had Bishop Fitzgerald higher than the Round 4 slot, and the safety fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick147 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard in No. 147 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick187 Rnd6 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart at the 187th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
Pick198 Rnd6 Lander Barton
Lander Barton at the Round 6 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick204 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at pick 204 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
They did well to land Thaddeus Dixon in pick No. 223, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
