Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD- FutureA+
The Commanders lost the trade table, and the B- tells the story.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Commanders spent pick 104 on Jordan Travis, a name most had 34 spots down the list. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. However the rest shakes out, Roberts at that price is a win they earned.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick 19 they get protection for the quarterback. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Edgerrin Cooper in pick No. 36 is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
They took Kamari Lassiter at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick51 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Fair-plus on Chris Braswell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick68 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Value said wait; Christian Mahogany in slot 68 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick100 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
No edge and no loss on Luke Lachey in the 100th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
They reached into another round for Jordan Travis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Malik Mustapha
They paid sticker price for Malik Mustapha in No. 141, and that is fine. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jamari Thrash
They read the board right and Jamari Thrash was the payoff at pick No. 182. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick225 Rnd7 Willie Roberts
Willie Roberts at Round 7, Pick 5 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
