Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders let Kiner fall into their laps, and walked away with a B-.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Corey Kiner, Round 7, Pick 32, roughly 61 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Hill pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
They paid sticker price for Princely Umanmielen in Round 1, Pick 29, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick61 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow at the 61st pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick128 Rnd4 Tommi Hill
They left a pile of value on the table to take Tommi Hill this early at slot 128. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick205 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Upton Stout in the 205th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick248 Rnd7 Corey Kiner
Corey Kiner at No. 248 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
