Overall B-

ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-

Good, not great, for the Commanders: B-.

The tape said wait; the Commanders did not. Suntarine Perkins went at the Round 3 slot, a good 28 picks before the board was ready. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Prongos pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

They left with offensive lineman solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick7 Rnd1 Peter Woods

In slot 7 they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.

Pick71 Rnd3 Suntarine Perkins

They left a pile of value on the table to take Suntarine Perkins this early at pick 71. The roster fit checks out.

Pick146 Rnd5 Niki Prongos

Quietly one of the better values of the day, Niki Prongos at pick No. 146. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.

Pick187 Rnd6 Lander Barton

They liked Lander Barton enough to skip the value, taking him in the 187th overall pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.

Pick197 Rnd6 Jaydn Ott

A reasonable price with a little left over, Jaydn Ott in the 197th pick. It fills a real need, too.
