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

The tape said wait; the Commanders did not. James Williams went at No. 202, a good 28 picks before the board was ready. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Aguero falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In pick 24 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick135 Rnd4 Bryce Boettcher
The board had Bryce Boettcher higher than No. 135, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick163 Rnd5 DJ McKinney
They let DJ McKinney come to them and pounced at pick No. 163. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kelby Collins
Kelby Collins at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick202 Rnd6 James Williams
This one needs a full-page explanation: James Williams in slot 202, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick220 Rnd7 Joenel Aguero
Steal is underselling it; Joenel Aguero at the 220th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick237 Rnd7 Rico Flores Jr.
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick No. 237 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
