Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Commanders got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C.

The Sean Martin selection is the head-turner. The Commanders reached 132 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. It lands right in the middle: a C, no more, no less.

They banked enough surplus on Tuten to cover a lot of smaller sins. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In pick No. 29 they get a press-man option on the boundary. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61 Rnd2 Deone Walker
They paid sticker price for Deone Walker in the 61st overall pick, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins slid further than he should have, and Round 3, Pick 15 is lovely value for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They jumped the gun on Hollin Pierce, taking him earlier than his grade liked. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick180 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
You do not let a running back like Bhayshul Tuten reach slot 180 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick207 Rnd6 Isaac TeSlaa
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Isaac TeSlaa. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A tidy little value on Teddye Buchanan in slot 238, a step better than break-even. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick250 Rnd7 Sean Martin
Sean Martin at Round 7, Pick 32 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
