Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Commanders found their guy under center in Daniels: D+.

Somebody took the Commanders to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it.

Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. If Hall pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Clark.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels in slot 5 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick36 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in pick No. 36 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
They took Jonah Elliss at par in pick 40, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Junior Colson
No drama and no debate, Junior Colson went about where he belonged in No. 75. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick94 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 94th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick100 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 100th pick is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Nothing to complain about; Tykee Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in Round 5, Pick 5 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
A straight-up fair deal on Theo Johnson at pick 142, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
They paid sticker price for Dylan Laube in slot 143, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick177 Rnd6 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas in No. 177 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick187 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
Gabe Hall in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
The board fumbled De'Corian Clark all the way to the 223rd pick, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
A tidy little value on Dwight McGlothern in the 256th overall pick, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
