Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureC+
Grand theft in the 237th overall pick: the Commanders steal Durant and grade out a B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Commanders watched Zane Durant slide 191 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kadyn Proctor
In No. 24 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jermod McCoy
Jermod McCoy in the 88th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 LT Overton
They robbed the room for LT Overton here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick202 Rnd6 Deontae Lawson
Circle this one: Deontae Lawson at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick237 Rnd7 Zane Durant
They barely believed it either: Zane Durant still on the board at pick 237. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
