FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Commanders: B. Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Commanders spent the 255th overall pick on Brian Ugwu, a name the board had a full 164 spots lower. The bottom line is a respectable B.
Landing Giddens that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.
Pick Analysis
Pick35
Rnd2
Kenneth Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kenneth Grant in pick No. 35. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick36
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at Round 2, Pick 4 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick99
Rnd3
Charles Grant
A slide stopped in the 99th pick, with Charles Grant worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103
Rnd4
Tai Felton
A tidy little value on Tai Felton in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo is a better player than pick 104 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick107
Rnd4
Zy Alexander
No edge and no loss on Zy Alexander in No. 107; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick128
Rnd4
Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at slot 128 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141
Rnd5
Kobe King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kobe King at the Round 5 slot. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick179
Rnd6
Ajani Cornelius
Ajani Cornelius in pick No. 179 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick192
Rnd6
Jalen McLeod
Jalen McLeod at No. 192 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in pick 200 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205
Rnd6
KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the 205th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick216
Rnd6
DJ Giddens
A top-tier running back at a bargain, DJ Giddens in the 216th overall pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245
Rnd7
Desmond Watson
The board had Desmond Watson higher than Round 7, Pick 29, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick255
Rnd7
Brian Ugwu
A big swing on Brian Ugwu at pick No. 255, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
