Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The real work happened on the phones. The Commanders fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.

Abrams-Draine falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They will need Eichenberg to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 6 they get protection for the quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In pick 27 they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
Chop Robinson at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick36 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin slipping to pick No. 36 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A reach for Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 39th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick40 Rnd2 Kamren Kinchens
They did well to land Kamren Kinchens in slot 40, just ahead of his grade. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A conviction pick on Cooper Beebe at Round 3, Pick 3 that the board grades a round light. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Michael Hall Jr. in the 100th overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at Round 4, Pick 2 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ray Davis
Ray Davis in slot 104 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick141 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
They robbed the room for Kris Abrams-Draine here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick143 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They paid sticker price for Theo Johnson in pick 143, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick181 Rnd6 Andru Phillips
Value with a capital V on Andru Phillips in the 181st overall pick, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick223 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
Matthew Jones in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
