Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in slot 71 lands the Commanders a B, Washington and all.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how A'Mauri Washington got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at the 71st pick. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The offensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In No. 7 they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in Round 3, Pick 7 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Luke Reynolds
No edge and no loss on Luke Reynolds in the 145th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jayden Virgin-Morgan
The board had Jayden Virgin-Morgan higher than the 185th pick, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick196 Rnd6 Jayden Bellamy
Jayden Bellamy in pick 196 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick223 Rnd7 Edrees Farooq
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 223, where Edrees Farooq graded well above the range. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
