madeincali8 DRAFTING FOR THECommanders

Draft Grade — Commanders

The Commanders let Gordon II fall and pounced. Final grade: B-. Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Ollie Gordon II got past him. The Commanders do not have to explain a thing at Round 6, Pick 29. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
They will need Lacy to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the tight end spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the back end, and a steal at that.
Pick61
Rnd2
Maxwell Hairston
They paid up for Maxwell Hairston at the 61st pick when waiting would have done the job. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in pick No. 79 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick207
Rnd6
Ollie Gordon II
They will replay Ollie Gordon II at the 207th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick238
Rnd7
Tonka Hemingway
A premium they did not need to pay, Tonka Hemingway a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick250
Rnd7
Kyren Lacy
They talked themselves into Kyren Lacy at slot 250, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
