Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC FutureB
A solid, sensible weekend for the Commanders: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with VJ Payne at the Round 5 slot, a reach of 44 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The back end got a real overhaul.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In pick 12 they get a sticky cover corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick87 Rnd3 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance at the 87th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick92 Rnd3 Logan Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Logan Jones at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
A tidy little value on Nicholas Singleton in No. 112, a step better than break-even. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick127 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Harold Perkins Jr. at pick No. 127 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick147 Rnd5 VJ Payne
A wild overpay on VJ Payne in the 147th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick187 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
They paid sticker price for Ephesians Prysock in the 187th pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick209 Rnd6 Kaden Wetjen
Kaden Wetjen at the 209th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trey Zuhn III in No. 223, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
