Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Martin: A-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how LJ Martin got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at the 187th overall pick. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Reaching for Young left real value on the table behind him. The Tuli Tuipulotu deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

In the end it comes back to Caleb Downs, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a downhill hitter at safety, outstanding value to boot.
Pick56 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
They will replay Kenyon Sadiq at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Zion Young
Zion Young at slot 71 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick122 Rnd4 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor in pick No. 122 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick146 Rnd5 J.C. Davis
The board had J.C. Davis higher than the 146th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 LJ Martin
LJ Martin at pick 187 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick197 Rnd6 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves at the 197th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick223 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings in No. 223 is fair value, right on his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
