Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Commanders, and a B- to prove it.

The tape said wait; the Commanders did not. Kalil Alexander went at No. 223, a good 61 picks before the board was ready.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. However the rest shakes out, Cameron at that price is a win they earned.

They went 3 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In pick 7 they get juice off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Markel Bell
They talked themselves into Markel Bell at No. 71, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick145 Rnd5 Nyjalik Kelly
A big swing on Nyjalik Kelly at the 145th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 Justin Jefferson
The board had cheaper options than Justin Jefferson at the Round 6 slot, and it noticed. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick196 Rnd6 Josh Cameron
Josh Cameron in pick No. 196 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223 Rnd7 Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander at Round 7, Pick 7 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
