Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Commanders, and a B- to prove it.

The Commanders' one glaring miss is tight end, a need they left exactly as they found it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The Stone steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cayden Green
In the 7th pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 David Stone
A quiet steal in the 39th overall pick: David Stone for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick71 Rnd3 Princewill Umanmielen
Princewill Umanmielen at the Round 3 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick108 Rnd4 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu slid further than he should have, and Round 4, Pick 7 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick146 Rnd5 Raylen Wilson
A clean, defensible pick in No. 146 with a little surplus value in Raylen Wilson. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick186 Rnd6 Audavion Collins
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 186, where Audavion Collins graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228 Rnd7 Braylon Staley
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Braylon Staley in pick 228. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
