Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders won the night they stopped Sainristil from sliding. Grade: B+.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Commanders, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. However the rest shakes out, Sainristil at that price is a win they earned.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
Good price on Laiatu Latu in the Round 1 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
A tidy bit of business in pick 36, where Brian Thomas Jr. graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick40 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at slot 40 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper slid further than he should have, and the 67th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They paid sticker price for Christian Haynes in Round 3, Pick 11, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
They robbed the room for Mike Sainristil here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
