Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB
Washington should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how A'Mauri Washington got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at the Round 3 slot.

Leaving offensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Clarke reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In Round 1, Pick 4 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
They paid sticker price for Charlie Becker in the 36th pick, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
Circle this one: A'Mauri Washington at pick 68 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Peter Clarke
They went early on Peter Clarke in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick141 Rnd5 Earl Little Jr.
The board had Earl Little Jr. higher than the 141st overall pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jermaine Mathews Jr. in slot 182. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Payton Pierce
Fair-plus on Payton Pierce, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
