Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Paul Jr. should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Chris Paul Jr., the No. 117 name on the board, stolen at No. 202. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

Leaving cornerback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Nash reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Omarion Hampton
In the 26th overall pick they get a lead back with juice. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They read the board right and Tyler Warren was the payoff at pick 59. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick80 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba is a better player than slot 80 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick147 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
They will replay Barrett Carter at No. 147 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick202 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Chris Paul Jr. in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick236 Rnd7 Nick Nash
Nick Nash in pick No. 236 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser in the 244th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
