FutureB+
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Moore: B. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Malachi Moore, slot 186, roughly 45 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
The Dellinger reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick61
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Taking Jalon Walker in slot 61 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick63
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson slid further than he should have, and the 63rd pick is lovely value for the running back. The roster fit checks out.
Pick66
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in Round 3, Pick 2 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick97
Rnd3
Kevin Winston Jr.
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Kevin Winston Jr.. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick128
Rnd4
Tai Felton
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 4 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick133
Rnd4
Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at pick No. 133 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186
Rnd6
Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in pick 186 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick226
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
Nothing to complain about; Jordan Hancock went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick245
Rnd7
Robert Longerbeam
They robbed the room for Robert Longerbeam here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick251
Rnd7
Isaac TeSlaa
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Isaac TeSlaa at No. 251. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick257
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at pick 257 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
