Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
Maye is the plan now, and the Commanders grade out a B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Commanders' quarterback, full stop. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The cost of the McCormick reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Drake Maye
Drake Maye at the Round 1 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Morgan. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kamari Lassiter
Kamari Lassiter at pick No. 66 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
No edge and no loss on Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the 67th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick71 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher in the 71st pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick78 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
The board had cheaper options than Devontez Walker at No. 78, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at pick 100 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Mason McCormick
They talked themselves into Mason McCormick at Round 4, Pick 4, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 James Williams
They left a pile of value on the table to take James Williams this early at the 139th pick. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick152 Rnd5 AJ Barner
They jumped the gun on AJ Barner, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick222 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield in slot 222 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
