Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders won the night they stopped Stone from sliding. Grade: B.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: David Stone, the No. 19 name on the board, in pick 71. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

The back end got a real overhaul.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Leonard Moore
They took Leonard Moore at par in No. 7, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71 Rnd3 David Stone
David Stone in pick No. 71 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick145 Rnd5 Adon Shuler
Somehow Adon Shuler was still sitting there in the Round 5 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick185 Rnd6 Drew Bobo
You do not let an offensive lineman like Drew Bobo reach slot 185 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick196 Rnd6 Coen Echols
Coen Echols slid further than he should have, and pick 196 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223 Rnd7 Christian Alliegro
Fair-plus on Christian Alliegro, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
