Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesD+ FutureB
Grand theft in Round 3, Pick 9: the Commanders steal Stone and grade out a B-.

The Commanders did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and David Stone fell into pick No. 73. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. 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 quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Ashton Hampton
In the Round 1 slot they get an island corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Ryan Coleman-Williams
They went early on Ryan Coleman-Williams in the 41st overall pick, and the value did not follow. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick73 Rnd3 David Stone
Taking David Stone in slot 73 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick78 Rnd3 Rasheem Biles
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 78 is the definition of value, full stop. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick110 Rnd4 Kingston Lopa
They robbed the room for Kingston Lopa here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick124 Rnd4 Justin Evans
By-the-book stuff, Justin Evans at pick No. 124 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick148 Rnd5 Shadre Hurst
Shadre Hurst in Round 5, Pick 9 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick188 Rnd6 Drew Azzopardi
The board fumbled Drew Azzopardi all the way to No. 188, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick191 Rnd6 Andrew Rappleyea
Nice patience on Andrew Rappleyea, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 12. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick230 Rnd7 Kam Franklin
No drama and no debate, Kam Franklin went about where he belonged in the 230th pick. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
