Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureA+
The Commanders kept it disciplined and banked a B.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Commanders reached some 60 spots for Gavin Bartholomew, and value like that does not grow back. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Dumas-Johnson pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback and running back. That Suamataia pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 T'Vondre Sweat
In No. 28 they get an anchor for the defensive front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
They jumped the gun on Cooper DeJean, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No edge and no loss on Jordan Morgan in the 44th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Steal is underselling it; Kingsley Suamataia at pick No. 71 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100 Rnd3 Mohamed Kamara
A tidy little value on Mohamed Kamara in slot 100, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick107 Rnd4 Payton Wilson
Nothing to complain about; Payton Wilson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 119 on Jamon Dumas-Johnson with quarterback and running back unsolved.
Pick144 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
They paid a round early for Mike Sainristil in Round 5, Pick 8, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jacob Cowing
They paid sticker price for Jacob Cowing in slot 185, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick197 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights in the 197th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick211 Rnd6 Caden Prieskorn
A reach for Caden Prieskorn in the 211th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick228 Rnd7 Gavin Bartholomew
They talked themselves into Gavin Bartholomew at the Round 7 slot, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
