FutureA+
The Commanders got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the B. Nobody had Derrick Moore this high, and it is not close. The Commanders reached 44 spots to get him at the Round 4 slot. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. However the rest shakes out, Stowers at that price is a win they earned. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick45
Rnd2
Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks at Round 2, Pick 13 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick48
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in pick No. 48 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71
Rnd3
Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe slid further than he should have, and the 71st overall pick is lovely value for the safety. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick88
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
Taking Eli Stowers in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111
Rnd4
Derrick Moore
They left a pile of value on the table to take Derrick Moore this early at pick 111. The roster fit checks out.
Pick146
Rnd5
Bray Hubbard
Good price on Bray Hubbard in the 146th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick162
Rnd5
DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at the 162nd pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick164
Rnd5
Kage Casey
Kage Casey at slot 164 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick187
Rnd6
Duce Robinson
Duce Robinson in the 187th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick197
Rnd6
Trinidad Chambliss
A slide stopped in the Round 6 slot, with Trinidad Chambliss worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Monroe Mills
Monroe Mills in pick No. 198 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223
Rnd7
Roderick Kearney
They reached a country mile for Roderick Kearney at Round 7, Pick 7, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
