Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Commanders.

For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Commanders walked out of the weekend still thin at tight end, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons.

That Watson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In No. 2 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No drama and no debate, Jordan Morgan went about where he belonged in pick 36. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick40 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in Round 2, Pick 8 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick67 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
A straight-up fair deal on Christian Haynes at the 67th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Brandon Dorlus
Brandon Dorlus at the 78th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick100 Rnd3 Cam Hart
No edge and no loss on Cam Hart in slot 100; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
They did well to land Tommy Eichenberg in pick No. 152, just ahead of his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick222 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
Nathaniel Watson at the Round 7 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
