The Commanders let Flowers fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-. Whoever sat across the table from the Commanders should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.
However the rest shakes out, Flowers at that price is a win they earned. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
In the end it comes back to Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa
In the 17th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick92
Rnd3
Luke Montgomery
Luke Montgomery slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick133
Rnd4
Jaylen McClain
Value with a capital V on Jaylen McClain in pick 133, a genuine coup. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick145
Rnd5
Mateen Ibirogba
Good price on Mateen Ibirogba in slot 145, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick185
Rnd6
Aaron Flowers
They will replay Aaron Flowers at No. 185 for years; that is how good the value is. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick196
Rnd6
Andrew Rappleyea
Andrew Rappleyea at Round 6, Pick 17 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick223
Rnd7
Jay'Vion Cole
The board had Jay'Vion Cole higher than No. 223, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
