Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 128th pick, a good 54 spots before the room expected him.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The Brown value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Shavon Revel Jr.
Shavon Revel Jr. in Round 2, Pick 6 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
They talked themselves into Ashton Gillotte at No. 61, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in the 86th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
The board had cheaper options than Brashard Smith at pick No. 125, and it noticed. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the 128th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick166 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown at slot 166 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing KeAndre Lambert-Smith in the 205th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick236 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the 236th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick241 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Steal is underselling it; Phil Mafah at pick 241 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick245 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A reach on Tonka Hemingway in the Round 7 slot; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
