Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Commanders would have aced it. Kaytron Allen at pick No. 78 is 27 spots clear of where he belonged. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Wilson. They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In pick 16 they get a difference-maker at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Kaytron Allen
Kaytron Allen in pick No. 78 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick151 Rnd5 Raylen Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Raylen Wilson at slot 151 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick201 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton in Round 6, Pick 18 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick213 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
The board had cheaper options than DJ Campbell at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick235 Rnd7 Ricardo Hallman
Ricardo Hallman is a better player than No. 235 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
