Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders robbed the room for Weeks. Final grade: B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Whit Weeks had no business being available in No. 185, and the Commanders did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
By-the-book stuff, Cam Coleman at pick 7 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick38 Rnd2 Trey'Dez Green
Taking Trey'Dez Green in pick No. 38 is close to grand larceny; a tight end that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Brice Pollock
They took Brice Pollock at par in Round 3, Pick 9, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
Jaylen McClain at No. 109 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick145 Rnd5 Anthony Boswell
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Anthony Boswell at the 145th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at slot 185 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick230 Rnd7 Mason Curtis
Mason Curtis at the Round 7 slot is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
