Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureA
The Commanders bet the future on McCarthy. The board says B.

Start where it matters. The Commanders took J.J. McCarthy to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Hunt reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Wilson.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In slot 14 they get a franchise quarterback, though they paid up to get him.
Pick36 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
A quiet steal in pick 36: Amarius Mims for less than the market said. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Kool-Aid McKinstry slid further than he should have, and the 40th pick is lovely value for the cornerback. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick43 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette at pick No. 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick45 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at No. 45 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
A wide receiver of that caliber at the Round 3 slot is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick74 Rnd3 DJ James
The board fumbled DJ James all the way to the 74th overall pick, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A premium they did not need to pay, Dominick Puni a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jalyx Hunt
Value said wait; Jalyx Hunt in the Round 3 slot says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick139 Rnd5 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 139 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Jarrian Jones in No. 152 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick199 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Circle this one: Ty'Ron Hopper at the 199th pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick222 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They paid up for Edefuan Ulofoshio at pick No. 222 when waiting would have done the job. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
