Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in pick No. 207 lands the Commanders a B-, Schwesinger and all.

Somebody in the Round 6 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Commanders sat still while Carson Schwesinger, the No. 87 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Trapilo reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Josaiah Stewart
In the 29th overall pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in No. 61 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick79 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at Round 3, Pick 15 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Pat Bryant. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick207 Rnd6 Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick238 Rnd7 LeQuint Allen
They robbed the room for LeQuint Allen here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick250 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Taking Jake Briningstool in slot 250 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
