Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders did enough to get by: C.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Commanders reached some 96 spots for Dasan McCullough, and value like that does not grow back. It lands right in the middle: a C, no more, no less.

Landing Lomu that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Malik Muhammad
In the 7th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick71 Rnd3 Caleb Lomu
Somehow Caleb Lomu was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick145 Rnd5 Dasan McCullough
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dasan McCullough well ahead of where he belonged. It does not line up with the team's obvious holes.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jamal Haynes
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jamal Haynes this early at Round 6, Pick 6. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick196 Rnd6 Red Murdock
Steal is underselling it; Red Murdock at pick No. 196 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick223 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
You do not let an offensive lineman like Trey Zuhn III reach the 223rd overall pick and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
