Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a A- for the Commanders.

The Commanders spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Every board in the league had Solomon lower, and that gap is the story. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

Landing Abrams-Draine that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

The Solomon pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
They paid sticker price for Jayden Daniels in the Round 1 slot, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
They did well to land Adonai Mitchell in pick No. 36, just ahead of his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A slide stopped in slot 37, with Tyler Guyton worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cade Stover
No drama and no debate, Cade Stover went about where he belonged in No. 67. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Fair-plus on Christian Haynes, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick89 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
Of all the spots to shop, they chose OLB-EDGE. Javon Solomon in Round 3, Pick 26 leaves edge rusher for later.
Pick100 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine at the 100th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves at pick 125 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at No. 152 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick186 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson in the Round 6 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick222 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Nathaniel Watson in slot 222. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick226 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Frank Gore Jr.. It fills a real need, too.
