Draft Grade — Commanders

FutureA
The Commanders found their guy under center in Williams: D+. Somebody took the Commanders to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. A D+ that will need time and luck to look better.
Whatever Caleb Williams becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They will need Eichenberg to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.
That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Clark falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and tight end is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Caleb Williams
In the 2nd overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick40
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
A reasonable price with a little left over, Xavier Legette in No. 40. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick67
Rnd3
Adisa Isaac
Adisa Isaac in pick 67 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick95
Rnd3
Christian Mahogany
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Christian Mahogany in Round 3, Pick 32. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Khyree Jackson. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick100
Rnd3
Matt Goncalves
They took Matt Goncalves at par in the Round 3 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103
Rnd4
Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in pick No. 103 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick141
Rnd5
Dylan Laube
They paid sticker price for Dylan Laube in slot 141, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick142
Rnd5
Cole Bishop
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cole Bishop at pick 142 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick159
Rnd5
Austin Booker
Austin Booker at the 159th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181
Rnd6
Frank Gore Jr.
Value with a capital V on Frank Gore Jr. in slot 181, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick205
Rnd6
Tanor Bortolini
They jumped the gun on Tanor Bortolini, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223
Rnd7
De'Corian Clark
The board fumbled De'Corian Clark all the way to Round 7, Pick 3, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
