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

The weekend has a hole in the middle of it named wide receiver, a need the Commanders walked right past.

If Huzzie pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Jackson at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In the 29th pick they get a premier pass rusher at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
A big swing on Jared Ivey at pick No. 61, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
They paid a round early for Hollin Pierce in pick 128, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick205 Rnd6 Alijah Huzzie
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alijah Huzzie in slot 205, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245 Rnd7 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ja'Quinden Jackson at Round 7, Pick 29. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
