Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders let Slaughter fall and pounced. Final grade: B-.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jake Slaughter, the No. 40 name on the board, in the 71st pick. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They are betting Barton proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In slot 7 they get a two-high chess piece. Need was not the driver here.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in Round 3, Pick 7 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick145 Rnd5 Jalon Kilgore
They robbed the room for Jalon Kilgore here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick187 Rnd6 Lander Barton
A reach on Lander Barton in No. 187; the board had better options right there. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick198 Rnd6 CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels in the Round 6 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick223 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
A clean, defensible pick in the 223rd pick with a little surplus value in Thaddeus Dixon. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
