Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall A
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
A franchise passer in Maye headlines a A weekend for the Commanders.

The Commanders spent the pick that matters most on Drake Maye, 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. On value alone, Suamataia makes the weekend a net positive. Powell-Ryland has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, with Drake Maye leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick No. 4 they get a franchise quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick9 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 9 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick21 Rnd1 Jared Verse
In the Round 1 slot they get a bendy edge with upside. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Kamari Lassiter
They let Kamari Lassiter come to them and pounced at the 36th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick40 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Value with a capital V on Troy Franklin in pick 40, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick57 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
The board fumbled Adonai Mitchell all the way to No. 57, and they scooped it up. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick66 Rnd3 Josh Newton
Nothing to complain about; Josh Newton went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick85 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 85th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick99 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in pick No. 99 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
A clean, defensible pick in slot 100 with a little surplus value in Tykee Smith. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick104 Rnd4 Gabriel Murphy
They went early on Gabriel Murphy in pick 104, and the value did not follow. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick141 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 141st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick181 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A wild overpay on Curtis Jacobs in No. 181, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick223 Rnd7 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
This one needs a full-page explanation: Antwaun Powell-Ryland in Round 7, Pick 3, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
