Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Commanders: B-.

The Commanders spent real capital to be 49 picks early on George Gumbs Jr., and the board is going to hold them to it. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. Masses at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but wide receiver.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In the 7th pick they get juice off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Austin Barber
Austin Barber at No. 71 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145 Rnd5 Hezekiah Masses
A cornerback of that caliber at the 145th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Lander Barton
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Lander Barton. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick196 Rnd6 VJ Payne
VJ Payne at slot 196 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick223 Rnd7 George Gumbs Jr.
George Gumbs Jr. at Round 7, Pick 7 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
