Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureF
Daniels is the plan now, and the Commanders grade out a B-.

The Commanders spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Sinnott pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jayden Daniels. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick18 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In No. 18 they get protection for the quarterback. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick35 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
Ennis Rakestraw Jr. at the 35th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick36 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
They paid sticker price for Roman Wilson in slot 36, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick40 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in pick 67, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick78 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
This one needs a full-page explanation: Ben Sinnott in the 78th overall pick, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick139 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
No edge and no loss on Tommy Eichenberg in Round 5, Pick 3; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick152 Rnd5 Mason McCormick
A straight-up fair deal on Mason McCormick at the 152nd overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
