Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB TradesA FutureA-
Tuten should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a A-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Commanders watched Bhayshul Tuten slide 74 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

The Cypress II reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Taking Tyler Warren in pick 48 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in the 64th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
The board fumbled Jihaad Campbell all the way to Round 3, Pick 5, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick92 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
They barely believed it either: Elic Ayomanor still on the board at the Round 3 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander at No. 109 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton slipping to pick No. 129 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick145 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at slot 145 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick148 Rnd5 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy in the 148th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
Ty Robinson at the 151st overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick157 Rnd5 Chris Paul Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at slot 157 is the definition of value, full stop. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick207 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick238 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten in pick No. 238 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick250 Rnd7 Fentrell Cypress II
Fentrell Cypress II in No. 250 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
