Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 3 slot lands the Commanders a B, Stone and all.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Commanders were there to profit. David Stone, the No. 19 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 72nd pick. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Trading back for volume was the quiet throughline of their weekend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Trey'Dez Green
Trey'Dez Green in Round 2, Pick 9 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 David Stone
They barely believed it either: David Stone still on the board at pick 72. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
A safety of that caliber at No. 117 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick143 Rnd5 Justin Evans
Good price on Justin Evans in the 143rd pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick196 Rnd6 Kayin Lee
Somehow Kayin Lee was still sitting there in slot 196, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick219 Rnd6 Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro in pick No. 219 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick231 Rnd7 Donovan Jones
A tidy bit of business in the 231st overall pick, where Donovan Jones graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick233 Rnd7 Elinneus Davis
Elinneus Davis slipping to pick No. 233 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The roster fit checks out.
