Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Magee: A-.

The Commanders ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

The Magee pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Robinson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Dallas Turner and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 15 they get a bendy edge with upside. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at Round 2, Pick 4 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Jackson Powers-Johnson at the 40th overall pick, and it noticed. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick46 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A premium they did not need to pay, Edgerrin Cooper a notch or two before his time. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick67 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in No. 67, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick82 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They did well to land Cooper Beebe in slot 82, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
Fair-plus on Bucky Irving, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick102 Rnd4 Darius Robinson
They reached into another round for Darius Robinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick141 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
No edge and no loss on Ben Sinnott in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Frank Gore Jr. at slot 181. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
Jordan Magee in the 223rd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
