Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Commanders: B-.

The Commanders torched the value chart for Derrick Moore, taking him 32 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Key.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 7 they get the heartbeat of the defense. More want than need.
Pick71 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Derrick Moore well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jalen Stroman
No edge and no loss on Jalen Stroman in pick No. 146; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick186 Rnd6 Thaddeus Dixon
No drama and no debate, Thaddeus Dixon went about where he belonged in the 186th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick197 Rnd6 Dane Key
Dane Key in Round 6, Pick 17 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick223 Rnd7 Fernando Carmona
Fernando Carmona in pick 223 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
