Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Commanders lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Commanders did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The West value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick No. 29 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Fair-plus on Alfred Collins, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick63 Rnd2 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at Round 2, Pick 31 is money in the bank, a running back taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A reasonable price with a little left over, Maxwell Hairston in the 67th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
They read the board right and Andrew Mukuba was the payoff at No. 95. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 4 slot with a little surplus value in Jared Wilson. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
A tidy little value on Jacob Parrish in the 128th overall pick, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick169 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Bhayshul Tuten at slot 169 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick205 Rnd6 CJ West
They let CJ West come to them and pounced at slot 205. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick245 Rnd7 Shemar James
Nothing to complain about; Shemar James went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
