Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Commanders robbed the room for McMillan. Final grade: A-.

The real work happened on the phones. The Commanders fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A-.

The McMillan pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Geno Smith pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. The cost of the Beebe reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick 15 they get a blindside protector. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
They paid sticker price for JT Tuimoloau in No. 34, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick43 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They went early on Cooper Beebe in the 43rd pick, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick66 Rnd3 Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell in slot 66 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
Pick77 Rnd3 Marist Liufau
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marist Liufau. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They took Jackson Powers-Johnson at par in pick No. 79, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick100 Rnd3 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in slot 100 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at pick No. 102 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cam Hart in the 111th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Travis at the 139th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at No. 148 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick180 Rnd6 Braden Fiske
They let Braden Fiske come to them and pounced at pick 180. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jaylon Carlies
No drama and no debate, Jaylon Carlies went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
