Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Commanders: B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Earnest Greene III at pick 145, a reach of 24 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 David Bailey
In slot 7 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. A real need, handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas at No. 71 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
They reached into another round for Earnest Greene III, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Josh Moten
Josh Moten at pick No. 185 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick196 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
A reasonable price with a little left over, Trebor Pena in pick 196. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick223 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
Isaac Smith at the 223rd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
