Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Stone should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a C-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: David Stone, the No. 18 name on the board, stolen at slot 69. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C-.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In No. 4 they get a bendy edge with upside at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
Charlie Becker in the 36th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick64 Rnd2 Jamari Johnson
Jamari Johnson at Round 2, Pick 32 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 David Stone
They robbed the room for David Stone here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick95 Rnd3 Zeke Berry
Zeke Berry in pick No. 95 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ty Benefield
The board fumbled Ty Benefield all the way to slot 106, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138 Rnd4 Myles Graham
A quiet steal in the 138th pick: Myles Graham for less than the market said. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cam Cook
Cam Cook at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Earl Little Jr.
They will replay Earl Little Jr. at the 158th pick for years; that is how good the value is. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick175 Rnd5 Elijah Paige
By-the-book stuff, Elijah Paige at slot 175 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Braelin Moore
Braelin Moore at Round 6, Pick 4 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick217 Rnd6 Coen Echols
Coen Echols slid further than he should have, and No. 217 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dezz Ricks
A cornerback of that caliber at pick No. 225 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick243 Rnd7 C.J. Fite
A tidy little value on C.J. Fite in the Round 7 slot, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
