Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC+ FutureA+
The Commanders checked most of the boxes and earned a B+.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Commanders shredded theirs for James Williams. He came off 32 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The veteran additions, Sam Hubbard chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In pick No. 18 they get an island corner at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in No. 49 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
By-the-book stuff, Chris Braswell at slot 57 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70 Rnd3 Junior Colson
They took Junior Colson at par in the 70th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick101 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Khyree Jackson at the 101st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103 Rnd4 James Williams
They talked themselves into James Williams at pick No. 103, and the board did not agree. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick147 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at the Round 5 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
