Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Clark should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B+.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: De'Corian Clark, the No. 171 name on the board, in pick No. 228. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. It is not that Moore is a bad player; it is that the Commanders had louder needs to answer first. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick 10 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau in the 36th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick39 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They paid up for Cooper Beebe at pick No. 39 when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 2, Pick 10 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick71 Rnd3 Rod Moore
A curious use of slot 71. Quarterback and interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a defensive back in Rod Moore did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
No drama and no debate, Luke Lachey went about where he belonged in No. 144. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick185 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 185th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick188 Rnd6 Cam Hart
Value with a capital V on Cam Hart in pick 188, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick228 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
They will replay De'Corian Clark at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
