Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B+.

Start where it matters. The Commanders took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

Reaching for Milton III left real value on the table behind him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. Landing Jones that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
They paid sticker price for Jayden Daniels in Round 1, Pick 4, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 27th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in the 35th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No edge and no loss on Jordan Morgan in pick No. 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
No drama and no debate, Darius Robinson went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at slot 67 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick78 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A tidy bit of business in No. 78, where Christian Haynes graded well above the range. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Khyree Jackson in pick 100. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 4 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick139 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Mason McCormick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick152 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joe Milton III well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick222 Rnd7 Trente Jones
Trente Jones in No. 222 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
