Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA
The Commanders won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

The Patrick Payton selection is the head-turner. The Commanders reached 50 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. That Davis pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

The Odafe Oweh pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Caleb Downs and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick No. 13 they get a rangy last line of defense at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick68 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields at pick 68 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tacario Davis
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 147 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick167 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Nothing to complain about; Kage Casey went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick186 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
They reached into another round for Patrick Payton, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick191 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Le'Veon Moss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jordan Castell
Jordan Castell in the 220th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
