Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Stone: D.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Commanders, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. Too much went sideways, and the D is the honest tally.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Getting Stone where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The Clarke reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In pick No. 6 they get a problem off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
Charlie Becker in pick 37 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick63 Rnd2 David Stone
They barely believed it either: David Stone still on the board at Round 2, Pick 31. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick69 Rnd3 Zach Lutmer
They took Zach Lutmer at par in slot 69, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick106 Rnd4 Greg Johnson
Somehow Greg Johnson was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick111 Rnd4 Peter Clarke
Peter Clarke at the 111th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick142 Rnd5 Earl Little Jr.
Earl Little Jr. in Round 5, Pick 5 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick183 Rnd6 Mateen Ibirogba
A tidy bit of business in No. 183, where Mateen Ibirogba graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tao Johnson
Taking Tao Johnson in slot 225 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
