Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureC+
Maye is the plan now, and the Commanders grade out a B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Commanders spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

The Guyton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 4 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick25 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 25th pick they get a building block for the line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Rome Odunze
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Rome Odunze in slot 36, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jordan Morgan
Somehow Jordan Morgan was still sitting there in the 68th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tyler Guyton
You do not let an offensive lineman like Tyler Guyton reach pick No. 104 and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Blake Fisher
They barely believed it either: Blake Fisher still on the board at the Round 5 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at pick 182 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick225 Rnd7 Reuben Fatheree II
Reuben Fatheree II in Round 7, Pick 5 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
