The Commanders put a flag in the ground for R.J. Mickens, 45 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They banked enough surplus on Emmanwori to cover a lot of smaller sins.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
