Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Daniels in the fold, and a B- for the Commanders.

The Commanders spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

The Jefferson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jones. Adding Garrett Bradbury by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 11 they get the face of the franchise at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims is a better player than the 36th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick40 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A premium they did not need to pay, Ja'Tavion Sanders a notch or two before his time. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan slid further than he should have, and the 42nd overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in the Round 3 slot. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A slide stopped in pick No. 100, with Mike Sainristil worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A clean, defensible pick in slot 102 with a little surplus value in Tykee Smith. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jordan Jefferson. It fills a real need, too.
Pick181 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at Round 6, Pick 6 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick223 Rnd7 Nathaniel Watson
They paid up for Nathaniel Watson at slot 223 when waiting would have done the job. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick230 Rnd7 Sheridan Jones
Steal is underselling it; Sheridan Jones at the 230th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
