Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Commanders this weekend: C.

Some picks age like wine; Thor Griffith at the 250th pick will need to, sitting 47 spots clear of his grade. The final tally is a middling C.

Getting Phillips where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Hit on Tyler Warren and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in No. 36 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 70 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge slid further than he should have, and pick 79 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94 Rnd3 Danny Stutsman
They read the board right and Danny Stutsman was the payoff at the 94th overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
Circle this one: Jaylin Noel at Round 4, Pick 15 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
They will replay Jordan Phillips at No. 152 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick165 Rnd5 Logan Brown
You do not let an offensive lineman like Logan Brown reach slot 165 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick181 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
They robbed the room for Raheim Sanders here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick194 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 194th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in pick 202 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick207 Rnd6 Woody Marks
The board fumbled Woody Marks all the way to pick No. 207, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick216 Rnd6 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at the 216th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jonas Sanker
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Jonas Sanker in Round 7, Pick 16, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick238 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at slot 238 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick250 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
