Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesD+ FutureA
The Commanders did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Nobody had De'Zhaun Stribling this high, and it is not close. The Commanders reached 21 spots to get him at pick 185.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 12 they get a green-dot type in the middle. More want than need.
Pick71 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Fair-plus on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick145 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in pick No. 145 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185 Rnd6 De'Zhaun Stribling
They reached into another round for De'Zhaun Stribling, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick196 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick223 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at Round 7, Pick 7 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
