Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Commanders: B.

The Commanders looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Cade Stover at pick No. 104 regardless, 32 picks early. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Egbuka pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped cornerback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at Round 2, Pick 4 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick37 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka slid further than he should have, and No. 37 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
No drama and no debate, Sedrick Van Pran went about where he belonged in pick 68. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac at the 100th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at pick No. 104 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Payton Wilson
By-the-book stuff, Payton Wilson at slot 141 squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick182 Rnd6 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty at pick 182 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
