Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders won the night they stopped Fitzgerald from sliding. Grade: B.

The board owed the Commanders one, and it paid up: Ryan Fitzgerald, the No. 112 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 247 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They will need Thornton Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 29th pick they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
A linebacker of that caliber at pick No. 72 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick79 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They barely believed it either: Alfred Collins still on the board at the 79th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Dylan Sampson
They robbed the room for Dylan Sampson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick146 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Fair-plus on Jared Wilson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Dont'e Thornton Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jaylin Noel
Taking Jaylin Noel in pick 160 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick203 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
Steal is underselling it; Robert Spears-Jennings at the Round 6 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick236 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick240 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
The board fumbled Bhayshul Tuten all the way to pick 240, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald in the 247th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
