Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureD
The Commanders let Fitzgerald fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The Commanders did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Ryan Fitzgerald fell into slot 238.

They are betting Thornton Jr. proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick61 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
They barely believed it either: Tyler Warren still on the board at the 61st overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79 Rnd3 Darien Porter
They paid sticker price for Darien Porter in slot 79, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick103 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Steal is underselling it; TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick148 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 148, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick207 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
A straight-up fair deal on Hayden Conner at Round 6, Pick 32, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick238 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Circle this one: Ryan Fitzgerald at No. 238 is a fall that decides a draft. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick250 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
Thor Griffith at pick 250 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
