Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Larceny in slot 61 lands the Commanders a A-, Emmanwori and all.

You could see the war room lean forward. Nick Emmanwori at slot 61 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Trevon Diggs pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Bottom line, with Nick Emmanwori leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick61 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at Round 2, Pick 29 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in slot 128 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 205 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick245 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
They paid sticker price for Teddye Buchanan in pick No. 245, and that is fine. A minor need, but a need all the same.
