Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Commanders let Wright fall and pounced. Final grade: A-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Commanders, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

Landing Wright that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 6th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Bo Nix
Bo Nix at pick No. 34 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
A straight-up fair deal on Bralen Trice at slot 36, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick40 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Legette in the Round 2 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick47 Rnd2 Graham Barton
No edge and no loss on Graham Barton in pick 47; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at Round 3, Pick 3 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100 Rnd3 Nelson Ceaser
A conviction pick on Nelson Ceaser at No. 100 that the board grades a round light. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mike Sainristil
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Mike Sainristil in the 102nd overall pick, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in Round 5, Pick 5 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
They will replay Jaylen Wright at the Round 6 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They took Brevyn Spann-Ford at par in pick No. 223, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
