Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall
B+
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesB
FutureA+
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Commanders. The Commanders treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 179 on Barryn Sorrell a full 135 spots early. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.
The Grant steal is the beam this whole class leans on. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick66
Rnd3
Azareye'h Thomas
A tidy little value on Azareye'h Thomas in Round 3, Pick 2, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond is a better player than the Round 3 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92
Rnd3
Mason Taylor
They read the board right and Mason Taylor was the payoff at the 92nd overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128
Rnd4
Charles Grant
Steal is underselling it; Charles Grant at pick 128 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick132
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in slot 132 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick179
Rnd6
Barryn Sorrell
Barryn Sorrell at No. 179 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick205
Rnd6
Carson Vinson
The board had cheaper options than Carson Vinson at pick No. 205, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick207
Rnd6
Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in No. 207 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209
Rnd6
Shemar James
Shemar James in the Round 6 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick238
Rnd7
R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at the 238th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick250
Rnd7
Kaden Prather
A reach on Kaden Prather in slot 250; the board had better options right there. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256
Rnd7
Tonka Hemingway
Tonka Hemingway at the 256th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
