Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Thornton Jr.: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Commanders watched Dont'e Thornton Jr. slide 30 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In No. 29 they get a problem off the edge, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at the 61st overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Fair-plus on Emery Jones Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick205 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Taking Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 205th pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Hunter Wohler
By-the-book stuff, Hunter Wohler at pick 245 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
