Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders let Hood fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Colton Hood at No. 59 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

Every board in the league had Perkins Jr. lower, and that gap is the story. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through offensive lineman.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but offensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In slot 28 they get a mismatch in the passing game, and a steal at that. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 6 with a little surplus value in Dillon Thieneman. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick59 Rnd2 Colton Hood
The board fumbled Colton Hood all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the 69th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jadarian Price
Value with a capital V on Jadarian Price in pick 71, a genuine coup. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick145 Rnd5 Cyrus Allen
Cyrus Allen at the 145th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223 Rnd7 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in No. 223 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
