Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Williams in the fold, and a B- for the Commanders.

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

The Carson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. Spending an early pick on TE-EDGE with wide receiver, tight end and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In No. 2 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
No edge and no loss on Tyler Guyton in pick 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick No. 40 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at the 67th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100 Rnd3 Caelen Carson
You do not let a cornerback like Caelen Carson reach the 100th pick and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick115 Rnd4 Cade Stover
A surprising call. With wide receiver, tight end and other spots still to address, they spent slot 115 on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick141 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at Round 5, Pick 5 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick181 Rnd6 Cody Schrader
Value with a capital V on Cody Schrader in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jalen Green
The board had Jalen Green higher than the 223rd pick, and the safety fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick238 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
No drama and no debate, Matthew Jones went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
