Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureB
The Commanders let Singleton Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Eric Singleton Jr. slide, and the Commanders were the ones holding the card at the 93rd overall pick. Highway robbery. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

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

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 17 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece. More want than need.
Pick71 Rnd3 Max Klare
No drama and no debate, Max Klare went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick93 Rnd3 Eric Singleton Jr.
Eric Singleton Jr. in the 93rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick97 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley at No. 97 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick117 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 117 with a little surplus value in D'Angelo Ponds. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick147 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on DeMonte Capehart. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick185 Rnd6 CJ Daniels
A tidy little value on CJ Daniels in slot 185, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jermaine Mathews Jr. in Round 6, Pick 13. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207 Rnd6 Mark Fletcher Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Mark Fletcher Jr. at the 207th pick, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick221 Rnd7 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at pick No. 221 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick231 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They took Trey Zuhn III at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Barion Brown
Barion Brown in the 234th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
