Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a B for the Commanders.

The Commanders put a flag in the ground for Tyler Harrell, 134 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Whatever Jayden Daniels becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

They will answer for taking OLB-EDGE early while tight end and interior defensive lineman went begging. They banked enough surplus on Simpson to cover a lot of smaller sins.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 8th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick9 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in Round 2, Pick 4 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick40 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Fair-plus on Ennis Rakestraw Jr., a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick47 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in pick No. 47 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at the 67th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick68 Rnd3 Austin Booker
By-the-book stuff, Austin Booker at the 68th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Blake Corum
Blake Corum at No. 78 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
Of all the spots to shop, they chose OLB-EDGE. Javon Solomon in Round 3, Pick 37 leaves tight end and interior defensive lineman for later.
Pick137 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in pick No. 137 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick139 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey in the Round 5 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick143 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Braiden McGregor well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick152 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
No edge and no loss on Mason McCormick in pick 152; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in the 180th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick197 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Value said wait; Joe Milton III in the 197th pick says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222 Rnd7 Tyler Harrell
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tyler Harrell this early at pick 222. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
