Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesD+ FutureB+
Larceny in pick No. 207 lands the Commanders a B-, Shough and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Commanders were there to profit. Tyler Shough, the No. 139 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 6 slot. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The Griffith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. Spending an early pick on safety with tight end open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick42 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They barely believed it either: Jalon Walker still on the board at the 42nd pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick61 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Xavier Watts in the 61st overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick92 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson is a better player than slot 92 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick93 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Andrew Mukuba at safety with tight end open.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
No edge and no loss on Jaylin Noel in pick No. 94; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at Round 4, Pick 2 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick114 Rnd4 Sai'vion Jones
A real head-scratcher, Sai'vion Jones in pick 114 is miles ahead of his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They will replay Lathan Ransom at No. 143 for years; that is how good the value is. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick146 Rnd5 Ty Robinson
A conviction pick on Ty Robinson at pick 146 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick157 Rnd5 Logan Brown
They let Logan Brown come to them and pounced at the 157th pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Nohl Williams
Nice patience on Nohl Williams, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 8. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
You do not let a cornerback like Quincy Riley reach slot 193 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick207 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Tyler Shough in the 207th overall pick, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson in pick No. 210 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Kaden Prather
Kaden Prather in No. 250 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick254 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at slot 254 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
