Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Commanders worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: J.J. Weaver in pick No. 102, a good 126 spots before the room expected him. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

However the rest shakes out, Simpson at that price is a win they earned. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Bobby Okereke pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

In the end it comes back to Olumuyiwa Fashanu, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 7th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chop Robinson. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
Nothing to complain about; Kamren Kinchens went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick40 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A conviction pick on Jackson Powers-Johnson at Round 2, Pick 8 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick47 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in the 47th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They paid a round early for Cooper Beebe in No. 67, more than the board wanted. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ben Sinnott well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102 Rnd4 J.J. Weaver
This one needs a full-page explanation: J.J. Weaver in slot 102, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 107th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at pick 139 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick141 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They paid up for Theo Johnson at No. 141 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick181 Rnd6 Christian Jones
A premium they did not need to pay, Christian Jones a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Somehow Jaylin Simpson was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223 Rnd7 Marcus Harris
Marcus Harris at Round 7, Pick 3 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
