Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
Grand theft in slot 79: the Commanders steal Thomas Jr. and grade out a A.

The Commanders ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.

On value alone, Thomas Jr. makes the weekend a net positive. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
Olumuyiwa Fashanu in the 11th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick15 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Amarius Mims worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick37 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
Nothing to complain about; Edgerrin Cooper went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick79 Rnd3 Brian Thomas Jr.
Brian Thomas Jr. at pick 79 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick104 Rnd4 Donovan Edwards
The board fumbled Donovan Edwards all the way to the 104th pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick141 Rnd5 Cade Stover
A tidy little value on Cade Stover in No. 141, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152 Rnd5 James Williams
A safety of that caliber at slot 152 is the definition of value, full stop. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick182 Rnd6 JT Daniels
They paid sticker price for JT Daniels in the 182nd overall pick, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick223 Rnd7 Aki Ogunbiyi
The board had Aki Ogunbiyi higher than pick 223, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick225 Rnd7 Duce Chestnut
Duce Chestnut at the 225th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
