Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Commanders lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story.

The Commanders looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jawhar Jordan at Round 7, Pick 3 regardless, 77 picks early.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Mitchell at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In pick No. 9 they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick17 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a building block for the line at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Good price on Adonai Mitchell in No. 33, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick34 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins at the Round 2 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ladd McConkey
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ladd McConkey. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
A cornerback of that caliber at slot 100 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
Value said wait; Tykee Smith in the 102nd overall pick says they were not listening. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick109 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Theo Johnson in pick No. 109, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd5 Mohamed Kamara
Mohamed Kamara at No. 139 is money in the bank, a edge rusher taken below his worth. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick180 Rnd6 Cole Bishop
They robbed the room for Cole Bishop here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
A real head-scratcher, Jawhar Jordan in pick 223 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
