Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Commanders to a D.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Commanders did exactly that with Troy Bowles in the 223rd pick.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, wide receiver very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick145 Rnd5 Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick163 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
They went early on Kaleb Elarms-Orr in the 163rd overall pick, and the value did not follow. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kobe Baynes
Kobe Baynes at pick 185 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick196 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
Value said wait; Isaiah Jatta in the 196th pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223 Rnd7 Troy Bowles
Troy Bowles at slot 223 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick239 Rnd7 John Michael Gyllenborg
John Michael Gyllenborg at No. 239 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
