Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Commanders: C+.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Da'Shawn Womack at Round 5, Pick 25 is 46 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. However the rest shakes out, Ponds at that price is a win they earned.

If Braylan Shelby and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Braylan Shelby
In No. 24 they get a premier pass rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick88 Rnd3 Earnest Greene III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Earnest Greene III in pick No. 88, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick163 Rnd5 Da'Shawn Womack
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Da'Shawn Womack well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick202 Rnd6 D'Angelo Ponds
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing D'Angelo Ponds in the 202nd overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jayden Limar
A clean, defensible pick in pick 237 with a little surplus value in Jayden Limar. It fills a real need, too.
