FutureA-
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Arroyo: B-. You build a draft on nights like this. Elijah Arroyo had no business being available in the 130th overall pick, and the Commanders did the only sane thing and turned in the card.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Tight end is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick Analysis
Pick50
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker in the 50th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick61
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick79
Rnd3
Aireontae Ersery
Somehow Aireontae Ersery was still sitting there in slot 79, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick94
Rnd3
Darien Porter
A cornerback of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 30 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick130
Rnd4
Elijah Arroyo
Taking Elijah Arroyo in pick No. 130 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick165
Rnd5
Logan Brown
The board fumbled Logan Brown all the way to the 165th pick, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick173
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
A quiet steal in No. 173: Jonah Monheim for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207
Rnd6
Bhayshul Tuten
They barely believed it either: Bhayshul Tuten still on the board at pick 207. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick238
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at Round 7, Pick 20 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick250
Rnd7
Ja'Quinden Jackson
Ja'Quinden Jackson in pick 250 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
