Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall

FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Commanders. The one they had to fix is still broken. The Commanders left tight end untouched, and that omission hangs over an otherwise reasonable haul.
Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Jake Slaughter
In pick 24 they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick88
Rnd3
Caleb Tiernan
They paid sticker price for Caleb Tiernan in the 88th overall pick, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick163
Rnd5
Lee Hunter
Fair-plus on Lee Hunter, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202
Rnd6
Hykeem Williams
They took Hykeem Williams at par in No. 202, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick237
Rnd7
Ethan O'Connor
By-the-book stuff, Ethan O'Connor at the 237th pick squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
