Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Commanders a B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Francisco Mauigoa at slot 245. The Commanders jumped the board by 53 and dared it to prove them wrong. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Emmanwori. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick37 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at slot 37 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at pick No. 61 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Oluwafemi Oladejo
Oluwafemi Oladejo at No. 108 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick128 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
A conviction pick on Hollin Pierce at pick 128 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jason Marshall Jr. in the 205th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in Round 6, Pick 39 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Francisco Mauigoa
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Francisco Mauigoa. A minor need, but a need all the same.
