Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Commanders get a C+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Ashton Gillotte, 35 picks early at pick No. 61. Fine in stretches, shaky in others: a C+.

For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Josaiah Stewart
In slot 29 they get a problem off the edge, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick61 Rnd2 Ashton Gillotte
They reached a country mile for Ashton Gillotte at pick No. 61, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Logan Brown
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Logan Brown. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick205 Rnd6 Robert Longerbeam
Robert Longerbeam at the 205th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
Dante Trader Jr. in the 245th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
