Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Commanders bet the future on Williams. The board says B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Caleb Williams is the Commanders' quarterback, full stop. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. With running back and interior defensive lineman unsolved, spending premium capital on OLB-EDGE is the choice that costs them. The cost of the Cole reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get the face of the franchise at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Value with a capital V on Amarius Mims in Round 2, Pick 4, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick54 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
No drama and no debate, Kingsley Suamataia went about where he belonged in pick 54. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
A reasonable price with a little left over, Malachi Corley in the 67th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick91 Rnd3 Calen Bullock
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Calen Bullock at the 91st pick. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick93 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Khyree Jackson at No. 93 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A straight-up fair deal on Cedric Gray at slot 108, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick113 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson in pick No. 113 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in the 115th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 126 on Javon Solomon with running back and interior defensive lineman unsolved.
Pick129 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They took Mohamed Kamara at par in No. 129, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Myles Cole
Myles Cole at pick No. 182 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick190 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
They paid a round early for Joe Milton III in the 190th pick, more than the board wanted. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
