Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Kitselman: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Commanders were there to profit. Miles Kitselman, the No. 225 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 253. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They are betting Foster proves the room right and everyone else wrong. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In slot 7 they get a bell-cow for the offense at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Bryce Lance
A wild overpay on Bryce Lance in the 71st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick162 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
A tidy little value on Zxavian Harris in the Round 5 slot, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
They took Ephesians Prysock at par in pick 187, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jadon Canady
No edge and no loss on Jadon Canady in pick No. 209; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211 Rnd6 Noah Whittington
They liked Noah Whittington enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 211. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
They reached a country mile for Bryce Foster at Round 7, Pick 7, and the board is aghast. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick250 Rnd7 Fernando Carmona
They talked themselves into Fernando Carmona at the 250th pick, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Miles Kitselman
Miles Kitselman in the 253rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
