Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Commanders.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Commanders shredded theirs for Jalen Thompson. He came off 52 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

They banked enough surplus on Claiborne to cover a lot of smaller sins. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through offensive lineman. The back end got a real overhaul.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In pick 17 they get a lockdown presence outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick81 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard slid further than he should have, and pick No. 81 is lovely value for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick156 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
They will replay Demond Claiborne at slot 156 for years; that is how good the value is. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick201 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
A clean, defensible pick in No. 201 with a little surplus value in Raylen Wilson. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick212 Rnd6 Shamar Easter
They paid sticker price for Shamar Easter in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson at Round 7, Pick 17 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
