Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Commanders let Thompkins fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

The Commanders lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

Every board in the league had Coleman-Williams lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

That is an edge rusher worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In pick 5 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ryan Coleman-Williams
A wild overpay on Ryan Coleman-Williams in the 37th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Jamari Johnson
Jamari Johnson in pick No. 53 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ashton Hampton
Value with a capital V on Ashton Hampton in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 75 is the definition of value, full stop. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106 Rnd4 Devan Thompkins
Devan Thompkins at No. 106 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick131 Rnd4 Earl Little Jr.
They did well to land Earl Little Jr. in the 131st pick, just ahead of his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick142 Rnd5 Myles Graham
Myles Graham slid further than he should have, and pick 142 is lovely value for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick183 Rnd6 Mateen Ibirogba
Mateen Ibirogba is a better player than the Round 6 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick225 Rnd7 Niki Prongos
A reach for Niki Prongos in Round 7, Pick 5; a little patience would have been rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
