Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Commanders a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Commanders started one anyway for Jalen Thompson, 56 picks ahead of schedule.

They punted on offensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. However the rest shakes out, Mathews Jr. at that price is a win they earned. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
Caleb Downs at the 7th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick71 Rnd3 Max Klare
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Max Klare at No. 71 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick146 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
No edge and no loss on Chase Roberts in slot 146; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Jermaine Mathews Jr. graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick197 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Raylen Wilson. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
A wild overpay on Jalen Thompson in Round 7, Pick 7, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
