Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders bet the future on Williams. The board says B-.

The search is over. The Commanders handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

McCoy at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They will need Haynes to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the cornerback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
They paid sticker price for Caleb Williams in the 2nd pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick36 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
No drama and no debate, Troy Fautanu went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at slot 40 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick67 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at the 67th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100 Rnd3 J. Michael Sturdivant
A clean, defensible pick in No. 100 with a little surplus value in J. Michael Sturdivant. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A straight-up fair deal on Dominick Puni at pick 102, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick141 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in pick No. 141 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick181 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in Round 6, Pick 6 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick223 Rnd7 Bru McCoy
Bru McCoy in the 223rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
