Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Commanders: B.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Davin Vann at No. 245 is 33 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it. The Johnson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Shavon Revel Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a lockdown presence outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick61 Rnd2 Kaleb Johnson
A quiet steal in pick No. 61: Kaleb Johnson for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They paid a round early for Hollin Pierce in Round 4, Pick 26, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick205 Rnd6 Jay Toia
No drama and no debate, Jay Toia went about where he belonged in the 205th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick245 Rnd7 Davin Vann
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Davin Vann. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
