Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C-
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Commanders let Johnson fall and pounced. Final grade: C-.

Somebody in pick 98 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Commanders sat still while Greg Johnson, the No. 42 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

So much rides on Leonard Moore that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Leonard Moore
In the 9th pick they get a lockdown presence outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41 Rnd2 Tae Johnson
They read the board right and Tae Johnson was the payoff at pick 41. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick98 Rnd3 Greg Johnson
Taking Greg Johnson in Round 3, Pick 34 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick110 Rnd4 Elijah Paige
Elijah Paige in the Round 4 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick122 Rnd4 Tony Rojas
Tony Rojas in pick No. 122 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick170 Rnd5 Lawson Luckie
Lawson Luckie at slot 170 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the tight end. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193 Rnd6 Audavion Collins
A quiet steal in No. 193: Audavion Collins for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick230 Rnd7 Collin Dixon
No drama and no debate, Collin Dixon went about where he belonged in the 230th overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
