Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Commanders to a C+.

There is reaching, and then there is Brant Kuithe at the 228th overall pick. The Commanders jumped the board by 54 and dared it to prove them wrong.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

If Olumuyiwa Fashanu and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 19 they get a long-term starter on the line, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze at the 37th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick40 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
A straight-up fair deal on T.J. Tampa at the 40th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick51 Rnd2 Michael Pratt
Michael Pratt in slot 51 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Cooper DeJean
They let Cooper DeJean come to them and pounced at the Round 3 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 McKinnley Jackson
McKinnley Jackson in Round 3, Pick 37 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in the 104th pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick119 Rnd4 Junior Colson
By-the-book stuff, Junior Colson at No. 119 squarely in line with his ranking. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick141 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
Nice patience on Mohamed Kamara, who had no business lasting to pick No. 141. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick145 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
Fair-plus on Sataoa Laumea, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Brandon Coleman
The board had cheaper options than Brandon Coleman at pick 182, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick197 Rnd6 Ashton Gillotte
Somehow Ashton Gillotte was still sitting there in the 197th overall pick, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Omar Speights
They paid sticker price for Omar Speights in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick228 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
They left a pile of value on the table to take Brant Kuithe this early at Round 7, Pick 8. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick229 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
They read the board right and Isaiah Williams was the payoff at pick 229. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at slot 256 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
