Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Fitzgerald should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

Call it larceny. Ryan Fitzgerald sat on the board until pick 247, and the Commanders did not need to be asked twice.

Weaver has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a sticky cover corner at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
Nothing to complain about; Elic Ayomanor went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge in slot 79 lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Elijah Arroyo in pick 131, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick147 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at No. 147 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick166 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the 166th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Smael Mondon Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick225 Rnd7 J.C. Davis
This one needs a full-page explanation: J.C. Davis in the 225th overall pick, miles early. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick233 Rnd7 Steven Parker
A big swing on Steven Parker at No. 233, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick236 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
They reached a country mile for J.J. Weaver at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
They will replay Ryan Fitzgerald at pick No. 247 for years; that is how good the value is. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
