Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders won the night they stopped Washington from sliding. Grade: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: A'Mauri Washington, the No. 37 name on the board, stolen at No. 71. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Job largely done: cornerback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it. The dealing was even money, start to finish.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Matayo Uiagalelei
In No. 7 they get a problem off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
They barely believed it either: A'Mauri Washington still on the board at the 71st pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick155 Rnd5 Drew Bobo
A slide stopped in the 155th overall pick, with Drew Bobo worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick185 Rnd6 Mason Curtis
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Mason Curtis at Round 6, Pick 6. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick186 Rnd6 Edwin Spillman
Edwin Spillman at pick 186 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick196 Rnd6 Donovan Jones
They took Donovan Jones at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick223 Rnd7 TJ Metcalf
TJ Metcalf at slot 223 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
