Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueA- NeedB TradesC- FutureD+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Gordon II: C+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ollie Gordon II had no business being available in slot 238, and the Commanders did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

The Griffith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The Stutsman pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at cornerback, edge rusher and other spots. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Hit on Tyler Warren and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 31st pick they get a security blanket over the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A tidy bit of business in No. 36, where Nick Emmanwori graded well above the range. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jayden Higgins in slot 79. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in pick 88 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Danny Stutsman at linebacker with cornerback, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick103 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
A surprising call. With cornerback, edge rusher and other spots still to address, they spent pick No. 103 on Andrew Mukuba, a safety they were not short of.
Pick132 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. slipping to the Round 4 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Taking Anthony Belton in No. 143 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick238 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
The board fumbled Ollie Gordon II all the way to pick No. 238, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick250 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
You do not let a running back like Trevor Etienne reach the 250th pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick256 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Thor Griffith. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
