Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A
ValueA NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a A for the Commanders.

When a board-topper like Chau Smith-Wade slides to No. 222, you do not overthink it, and the Commanders did not.

Caleb Williams is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In the end it comes back to Caleb Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
Good price on Caleb Williams in the 5th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The roster fit checks out.
Pick36 Rnd2 Marvin Harrison Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Marvin Harrison Jr. reach pick 36 and blink. They did not. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick37 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
The board fumbled Dallas Turner all the way to the 37th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick40 Rnd2 JC Latham
They will replay JC Latham at slot 40 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Steal is underselling it; Ja'Tavion Sanders at the Round 3 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jer'Zhan Newton
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 5 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78 Rnd3 DJ James
DJ James in pick 78 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100 Rnd3 Renardo Green
They barely believed it either: Renardo Green still on the board at No. 100. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick139 Rnd5 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves at pick No. 139 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick165 Rnd5 James Williams
James Williams in the 165th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick222 Rnd7 Chau Smith-Wade
Circle this one: Chau Smith-Wade at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
