Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall
A-
ValueB
NeedB+
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Commanders left with their quarterback, and a A- to match. The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Commanders spent their marquee pick on J.J. McCarthy, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.
Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Fisher. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.
They are betting Cole proves the room right and everyone else wrong.
Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick No. 15 they get a blindside protector at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick27
Rnd1
J.J. McCarthy
In the 27th overall pick they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Cooper DeJean
The board had Cooper DeJean higher than pick 36, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick46
Rnd2
Kris Jenkins
No edge and no loss on Kris Jenkins in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick52
Rnd2
Xavier Worthy
No drama and no debate, Xavier Worthy went about where he belonged in the 52nd pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick67
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Patrick Paul. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick83
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A premium they did not need to pay, Khyree Jackson a notch or two before his time. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick100
Rnd3
Braelon Allen
They paid sticker price for Braelon Allen in No. 100, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick116
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at Round 4, Pick 16 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick117
Rnd4
Johnny Wilson
The board had cheaper options than Johnny Wilson at the 117th overall pick, and it noticed. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152
Rnd5
Blake Fisher
The board fumbled Blake Fisher all the way to slot 152, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick172
Rnd5
Luke McCaffrey
Taking Luke McCaffrey in pick No. 172 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174
Rnd5
Myles Cole
Myles Cole in pick 174 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
Trevin Wallace at No. 222 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick234
Rnd7
Dominique Hampton
They took Dominique Hampton at par in the Round 7 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
