Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Moore should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

The board owed the Commanders one, and it paid up: Malachi Moore, the No. 95 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 5 slot like a gift left on the doorstep.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at the 29th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Circle this one: Jalon Walker at Round 2, Pick 29 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick79 Rnd3 Harold Fannin Jr.
Somehow Harold Fannin Jr. was still sitting there in pick 79, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Taking Malachi Moore in the 148th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
