Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Commanders and Mondon Jr.: A-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 110 name on the board, stolen at Round 7, Pick 12. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick49 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in No. 49 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick61 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A safety of that caliber at pick 61 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They paid sticker price for Donovan Jackson in pick No. 79, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick102 Rnd4 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach the Round 4 slot and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick146 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy at slot 146 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
They will replay Jared Wilson at the 148th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
A tidy little value on Jordan Hancock in Round 6, Pick 29, a step better than break-even. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick230 Rnd7 Smael Mondon Jr.
Taking Smael Mondon Jr. in the 230th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at Round 7, Pick 20 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick250 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Somehow Bhayshul Tuten was still sitting there in the 250th pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
