The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Washington: C-.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: A'Mauri Washington, the No. 23 name on the board, in the 68th overall pick.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

So much rides on Dylan Stewart that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In the 4th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
No edge and no loss on Charlie Becker in Round 2, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick55 Rnd2 Chris Cole
Steal is underselling it; Chris Cole at pick No. 55 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick68 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
Somehow A'Mauri Washington was still sitting there in No. 68, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Kade Pieper
Kade Pieper in pick 86 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
Good price on Jaylen McClain in slot 105, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick141 Rnd5 Anthony Boswell
Anthony Boswell in the Round 5 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A tidy little value on Jermaine Mathews Jr. in the 182nd overall pick, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224 Rnd7 John Nestor
They barely believed it either: John Nestor still on the board at pick 224. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
