Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall

FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Commanders: B-. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Markel Bell at slot 71 is 44 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. That Payne pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Keldric Faulk
In the 7th pick they get a problem off the edge at fair value.
Pick71
Rnd3
Markel Bell
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Markel Bell well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick147
Rnd5
Tyler Onyedim
A reach for Tyler Onyedim in pick 147; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187
Rnd6
Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Fair-plus on Kaleb Elarms-Orr, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick209
Rnd6
VJ Payne
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing VJ Payne in the Round 6 slot. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick223
Rnd7
Chase Roberts
No drama and no debate, Chase Roberts went about where he belonged in the 223rd overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
