Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB+
The Commanders left with their quarterback, and a B to match.

The search is over. The Commanders handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. With tight end, edge rusher and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on DT-EDGE is the choice that costs them. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick No. 2 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They paid sticker price for Patrick Paul in pick 61, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in slot 66 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 67th pick is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in No. 77, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick80 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khyree Jackson. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick111 Rnd4 Maason Smith
A curious use of the 111th overall pick. Tight end, edge rusher and other spots needed the pick; a DT-EDGE in Maason Smith did not.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
A reach for Cedric Gray in Round 4, Pick 16; a little patience would have been rewarded. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick118 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
They went early on Johnny Wilson in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
They paid a round early for Jalyx Hunt in the 160th pick, more than the board wanted. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
Pick222 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
A premium they did not need to pay, Trevin Wallace a notch or two before his time. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
