Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Commanders: B-.

The Solomon Tuliaupupu selection is the head-turner. The Commanders reached 69 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

The Bernard pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Dani Dennis-Sutton
In pick No. 17 they get a bendy edge with upside, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
Value with a capital V on Germie Bernard in pick 81, a genuine coup. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Connor Tollison
Connor Tollison in slot 156 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick201 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Raylen Wilson at Round 6, Pick 18 squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick212 Rnd6 Makhi Hughes
Makhi Hughes slid further than he should have, and No. 212 is lovely value for the running back. It fills a real need, too.
Pick235 Rnd7 Solomon Tuliaupupu
Solomon Tuliaupupu at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
