Thirty-one other rooms let DJ Giddens slide, and the Commanders were the ones holding the card at pick No. 250. Highway robbery. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

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