Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureB-
The Commanders answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: B+.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Commanders' quarterback, full stop.

The Logan Jr. reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Devonshire.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
Caleb Williams in the 1st pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
They will replay Dallas Turner at Round 2, Pick 4 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick49 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Nothing to complain about; Kiran Amegadjie went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick97 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum in slot 97 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick102 Rnd4 Malik Washington
A reasonable price with a little left over, Malik Washington in No. 102. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They let Cedric Gray come to them and pounced at the 132nd overall pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick139 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at pick No. 139 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick153 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
You do not let an offensive lineman like Roger Rosengarten reach pick No. 153 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick159 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Luke McCaffrey at Round 5, Pick 23 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick179 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick188 Rnd6 Fabien Lovett
Good price on Fabien Lovett in slot 188, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick222 Rnd7 M.J. Devonshire
Circle this one: M.J. Devonshire at the 222nd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick252 Rnd7 Kenny Logan Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Kenny Logan Jr. in No. 252 is miles ahead of his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
