Mudski57 DRAFTING FOR THECommanders
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall
B-

FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Commanders: B-. The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Commanders reached some 28 spots for Vincent Anthony Jr., and value like that does not grow back. The bottom line is a respectable B-.
A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Trotter.
Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Good work on the whole, with cornerback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
David Bailey
No drama and no debate, David Bailey went about where he belonged in the 7th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick71
Rnd3
Josiah Trotter
Josiah Trotter slid further than he should have, and the Round 3 slot is lovely value for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick145
Rnd5
Vincent Anthony Jr.
They reached into another round for Vincent Anthony Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185
Rnd6
Isaiah Jatta
Isaiah Jatta at No. 185 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick196
Rnd6
Trebor Pena
Trebor Pena at Round 6, Pick 17 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223
Rnd7
Brett Norfleet
Brett Norfleet in pick 223 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
