Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesC- FutureB
The Commanders did enough to get by: C+.

The Commanders looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Omar Speights at pick 185 regardless, 37 picks early. The final tally is a middling C+.

However the rest shakes out, Mitchell at that price is a win they earned. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

Tight end was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Hit on Ja'Tavion Sanders and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Ja'Tavion Sanders
In No. 20 they get a matchup weapon at tight end. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean in the 36th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick39 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in Round 2, Pick 7 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It fills a real need, too.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
No edge and no loss on Kingsley Suamataia in slot 52; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick71 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They paid a round early for Zak Zinter in the Round 3 slot, more than the board wanted. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick100 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell in pick 100 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick107 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
A reasonable price with a little left over, Danny Stutsman in the 107th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick144 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
A clean, defensible pick in the 144th pick with a little surplus value in Cole Bishop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick185 Rnd6 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at slot 185 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick228 Rnd7 Landon Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Landon Jackson at pick No. 228, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 J.J. Weaver
They reached into another round for J.J. Weaver, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
