Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

The search is over. The Commanders handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

The cost of the Laube reach is exactly the players who went right after him. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
They took Caleb Williams at par in Round 1, Pick 2, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick36 Rnd2 Graham Barton
A tidy little value on Graham Barton in the 36th overall pick, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Jackson Powers-Johnson at pick 40, and it noticed. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick100 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at the 100th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at pick No. 102 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick141 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
A straight-up fair deal on Ben Sinnott at slot 141, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick181 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in No. 181 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
