The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Commanders spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Tampa.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.2 · Pick 2 · Drake Maye · QB · rank 5
In the 2nd pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Jackson Powers-Johnson · C · rank 32
Jackson Powers-Johnson in No. 36 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R2.10 · Pick 42 · Jordan Morgan · OT · rank 37
Jordan Morgan in pick 42 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · T.J. Tampa · CB · rank 51
A slide stopped in pick No. 67, with T.J. Tampa worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Cade Stover · TE · rank 74
They did well to land Cade Stover in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.37 · Pick 100 · Jaden Hicks · S · rank 85
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jaden Hicks at Round 3, Pick 37. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R5.3 · Pick 139 · Roger Rosengarten · OT · rank 135
Fair-plus on Roger Rosengarten, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.16 · Pick 152 · Tommy Eichenberg · LB · rank 145
Tommy Eichenberg at the 152nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R7.2 · Pick 222 · JD Bertrand · LB · rank 220
A straight-up fair deal on JD Bertrand at the 222nd pick, value and slot in agreement. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
R7.27 · Pick 247 · Brevyn Spann-Ford · TE · rank 249
Brevyn Spann-Ford at Round 7, Pick 27 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
