Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Commanders to a D-.

The Commanders put a flag in the ground for Jawhar Jordan, 77 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the 4th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick17 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term starter on the line. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Dallas Turner
A slide stopped in No. 34, with Dallas Turner worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick42 Rnd2 Calen Bullock
Calen Bullock in pick No. 42 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick66 Rnd3 Ladd McConkey
They paid sticker price for Ladd McConkey in slot 66, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick100 Rnd3 Adisa Isaac
A tidy little value on Adisa Isaac in pick 100, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102 Rnd4 Max Melton
Max Melton at pick No. 102 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick139 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 139th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180 Rnd6 Moose Muhammad III
No edge and no loss on Moose Muhammad III in Round 6, Pick 5; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan at No. 223 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
