Willyboys DRAFTING FOR THECommanders
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall
C+
ValueC-
NeedB
TradesB-
FutureB-
The jury is out on the Commanders. For now, C+. When the story of this class is written, it opens with Donovan Ezeiruaku at the 29th pick, a reach of 38 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.
A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. That Brooks pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Hit on Donovan Ezeiruaku and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Donovan Ezeiruaku
In the 29th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick61
Rnd2
Quinshon Judkins
They took Quinshon Judkins at par in slot 61, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick128
Rnd4
O'Donnell Fortune
They did well to land O'Donnell Fortune in No. 128, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick205
Rnd6
Jay Higgins
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 205 is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick248
Rnd7
Ja'Corey Brooks
The board fumbled Ja'Corey Brooks all the way to Round 7, Pick 32, and they scooped it up. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
