Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Commanders: B-.

The Commanders treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 128 on Tyler Baron a full 29 spots early.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Grey Zabel
In No. 29 they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Omarr Norman-Lott
A reach for Omarr Norman-Lott in the 61st overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron at pick 128 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Jason Marshall Jr. in the Round 6 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245 Rnd7 Corey Kiner
Good price on Corey Kiner in slot 245, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
