Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Commanders finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Commanders spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Cowing. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Powers-Johnson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick 7 they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in pick No. 39 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No drama and no debate, Jordan Morgan went about where he belonged in the 42nd overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick66 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Jackson Powers-Johnson at slot 66, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick100 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TreVeyon Henderson in Round 3, Pick 37. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102 Rnd4 Adisa Isaac
Fair-plus on Adisa Isaac, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick139 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
A slide stopped in the 139th pick, with Khyree Jackson worth more than the price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick159 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
By-the-book stuff, Malachi Moore at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick180 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
A straight-up fair deal on Ajani Cornelius at the 180th pick, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at slot 223 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
