Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Commanders won the night they stopped Scott from sliding. Grade: A-.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Justin Scott, the No. 22 name on the board, in No. 61. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. The Commanders clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Trey'Dez Green
In pick No. 27 they get a moveable chess piece at tight end at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick61 Rnd2 Justin Scott
The board fumbled Justin Scott all the way to the 61st overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jacarrius Peak
No drama and no debate, Jacarrius Peak went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
No edge and no loss on Jaylen McClain in pick 127; it is a wash and a sensible one. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick145 Rnd5 Xavier Lucas
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Lucas. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Drew Bobo
They will replay Drew Bobo at No. 185 for years; that is how good the value is. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick196 Rnd6 Mason Curtis
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Mason Curtis at slot 196 is the proof. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick223 Rnd7 Sammy Omosigho
A tidy little value on Sammy Omosigho in Round 7, Pick 7, a step better than break-even. A minor need, but a need all the same.
