Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Commanders.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Commanders spent slot 205 on Ahmed Hassanein, a name the board had a full 41 spots lower. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Hudson steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick56 Rnd2 T.J. Sanders
They robbed the room for T.J. Sanders here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick61 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
You do not let a safety like Xavier Watts reach Round 2, Pick 29 and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick62 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
A reasonable price with a little left over, Azareye'h Thomas in pick 62. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128 Rnd4 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey in No. 128 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick169 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Logan Brown in pick No. 169, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick192 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Good price on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jalen McLeod
They went early on Jalen McLeod in Round 6, Pick 24, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick205 Rnd6 Ahmed Hassanein
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ahmed Hassanein well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Kobe Hudson
Kobe Hudson in pick No. 245 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick255 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
