FutureC-
The Commanders won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B. The Commanders bet big and early on Michael Barrett, 39 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.
The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Sainristil pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The veteran additions, Kyle Pitts chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.
It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Jared Verse
In No. 22 they get a bendy edge with upside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27
Rnd1
Jordan Morgan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Morgan. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick35
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
A quiet steal in slot 35: Keon Coleman for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick36
Rnd2
J.J. McCarthy
The board had cheaper options than J.J. McCarthy at the 36th overall pick, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick43
Rnd2
Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell is a better player than pick No. 43 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick59
Rnd2
Edgerrin Cooper
They took Edgerrin Cooper at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick61
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
They read the board right and Xavier Worthy was the payoff at No. 61. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick85
Rnd3
Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at the 85th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95
Rnd3
Cade Stover
Cade Stover in pick No. 95 is fair value, right on his grade. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick100
Rnd3
Zak Zinter
Nothing to complain about; Zak Zinter went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick102
Rnd4
Mike Sainristil
Taking Mike Sainristil in slot 102 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115
Rnd4
Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at the Round 4 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick137
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in the 137th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick141
Rnd5
Michael Barrett
A wild overpay on Michael Barrett in pick 141, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick172
Rnd5
Cody Schrader
Cody Schrader at pick No. 172 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick181
Rnd6
Josh Proctor
A straight-up fair deal on Josh Proctor at the Round 6 slot, value and slot in agreement. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick196
Rnd6
AJ Barner
AJ Barner slipping to slot 196 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick223
Rnd7
Taulia Tagovailoa
Good price on Taulia Tagovailoa in the 223rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick250
Rnd7
Aaron Frost
Aaron Frost in pick 250 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
