Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC FutureB
The Commanders did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Commanders spent Round 3, Pick 27 on Malachi Lawrence, a name most had 45 spots down the list. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Baynes pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The Dorian Williams pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Dontay Corleone
In the Round 1 slot they get a load in the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott slipping to pick No. 71 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence at No. 91 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers is a better player than Round 5, Pick 7 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Isaiah Nwokobia
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Nwokobia in slot 185, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick194 Rnd6 Kobe Baynes
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Kobe Baynes in the 194th overall pick, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick196 Rnd6 Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Trey Holly
They reached a country mile for Trey Holly at slot 223, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
