Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders let Jackson fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Donovan Jackson got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at the 148th overall pick. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Reaching for Hawes left real value on the table behind him.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 29 they get a load in the middle, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick79 Rnd3 Marcus Mbow
Somehow Marcus Mbow was still sitting there in No. 79, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103 Rnd4 Savion Williams
A reasonable price with a little left over, Savion Williams in the 103rd pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick148 Rnd5 Donovan Jackson
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick No. 148 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II at slot 207 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
A reach for Jackson Hawes in Round 7, Pick 20; a little patience would have been rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
A straight-up fair deal on Jaylin Smith at the 250th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
