Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesD- FutureA+
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Dike: B.

Somebody took the Commanders to the cleaners. The deals they made bled real value, and the whole class wears it. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Dike at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick87 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter slid further than he should have, and slot 87 is lovely value for the cornerback. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick124 Rnd4 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike in No. 124 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
A quiet steal in the 128th pick: Anthony Belton for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick159 Rnd5 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
No drama and no debate, Antwaun Powell-Ryland went about where he belonged in the Round 5 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick236 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
Steal is underselling it; R.J. Mickens at pick 236 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick245 Rnd7 Shemar James
Shemar James in the 245th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor need, but a need all the same.
