Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
Muhammad should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Commanders came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Landing Muhammad that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. If Jackson Jr. pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick No. 10 they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick46 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Nothing to complain about; Sonny Styles went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick87 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Omar Cooper Jr. at pick 87, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick97 Rnd3 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
Kenyatta Jackson Jr. at slot 97 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick110 Rnd4 Malik Muhammad
Malik Muhammad in No. 110 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick146 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
They paid up for DeMonte Capehart at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
Pick151 Rnd5 Hollywood Smothers
No edge and no loss on Hollywood Smothers in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick188 Rnd6 Darian Mensah
A quarterback of that caliber at the 188th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick197 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
They did well to land Earnest Greene III in No. 197, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223 Rnd7 Drayk Bowen
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Drayk Bowen. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick226 Rnd7 Malik Hartford
Malik Hartford at pick 226 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
