Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Commanders for Barton: B.

Call it larceny. Lander Barton sat on the board until Round 7, Pick 20, and the Commanders did not need to be asked twice. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. Tight end 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.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In No. 29 they get juice off the edge at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Booker at pick No. 61 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick79 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
They barely believed it either: Malaki Starks still on the board at the 79th overall pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick148 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at slot 148 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at the Round 6 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Lander Barton
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 238 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick250 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Circle this one: Luke Lachey at Round 7, Pick 32 is a fall that decides a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
