Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Commanders: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Commanders spent pick 191 on Patrick Payton, a name most had 42 spots down the list.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with offensive lineman the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In pick No. 7 they get a premier pass rusher. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Suntarine Perkins
A big swing on Suntarine Perkins at the Round 3 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick147 Rnd5 Kage Casey
A premium they did not need to pay, Kage Casey a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick185 Rnd6 Lander Barton
Lander Barton at No. 185 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick191 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at Round 6, Pick 13 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jahiem White
Jahiem White at the 221st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
