Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Commanders spent the 128th pick on Oluwafemi Oladejo, a name the board had a full 110 spots lower. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They banked enough surplus on Dike to cover a lot of smaller sins. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In No. 29 they get a rangy last line of defense, outstanding value to boot.
Pick61 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
Nothing to complain about; TreVeyon Henderson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Oluwafemi Oladejo
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Oluwafemi Oladejo. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick205 Rnd6 Clay Webb
Clay Webb at pick 205 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa slid further than he should have, and slot 236 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
Somehow Chimere Dike was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
