Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB+
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Phillips: C+.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Jordan Phillips got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 152.

The cost of the Baron reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick50 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A safety of that caliber at the Round 2 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick61 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at pick 61 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Good price on Darien Porter in No. 79, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel at pick No. 94 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
A big swing on Tyler Baron at the 116th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick137 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander slipping to Round 4, Pick 36 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
Taking Jordan Phillips in slot 152 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick165 Rnd5 Logan Brown
The board fumbled Logan Brown all the way to the 165th pick, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick238 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at No. 238 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick250 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson at Round 7, Pick 32 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
