Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A passer of the future in Daniels, and a B, for the Commanders.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Jaheim Bell at pick No. 67, a reach of 73 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Jayden Daniels gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

Landing Sainristil that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels in the 4th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
A clean, defensible pick in slot 27 with a little surplus value in Amarius Mims. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick35 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
They did well to land Troy Fautanu in pick 35, just ahead of his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick36 Rnd2 Chop Robinson
A straight-up fair deal on Chop Robinson at No. 36, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick51 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at the 51st pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jaheim Bell
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaheim Bell in the Round 3 slot, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick83 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 83, where Ruke Orhorhoro graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 100th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick102 Rnd4 Beau Brade
A reach for Beau Brade in No. 102; a little patience would have been rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
They paid a round early for Ainias Smith in Round 4, Pick 4, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick141 Rnd5 Keith Randolph Jr.
They went early on Keith Randolph Jr. in pick 141, and the value did not follow. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick157 Rnd5 Austin Booker
By-the-book stuff, Austin Booker at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jordan Jefferson. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick223 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
Xavier Thomas at slot 223 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
