Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall F
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureD-
The phones sank the Commanders this weekend: F.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Commanders did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. The cost of the Kennard reach is exactly the players who went right after him. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

In the end, a class that has to defy its grades just to matter.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the back end, outstanding value to boot. Need was not the driver here.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at No. 39 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick41 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Omarion Hampton in Round 2, Pick 9. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick61 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
Kyle Kennard in the 61st overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
No drama and no debate, Jayden Higgins went about where he belonged in slot 72. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick79 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A reasonable price with a little left over, Maxwell Hairston in pick No. 79. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
