Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders turned the phones into found money: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Devin Neal in pick 144, a good 40 spots before the room expected him. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

On value alone, Cowing makes the weekend a net positive. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving cornerback for another day if the season turns on it.

The Tampa pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at cornerback, edge rusher and other spots.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Ja'Tavion Sanders
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a seam-stretching tight end. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick39 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
Of all the spots to shop, they chose defensive back. T.J. Tampa in No. 39 leaves cornerback, edge rusher and other spots for later.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
A tidy little value on Jordan Morgan in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick59 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Amarius Mims well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick71 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in slot 71 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick100 Rnd3 Graham Barton
A straight-up fair deal on Graham Barton at the 100th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick107 Rnd4 Junior Colson
Junior Colson at the 107th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick144 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at pick No. 144 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick173 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
They did well to land Ben Sinnott in the 173rd overall pick, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jestin Jacobs
They paid a round early for Jestin Jacobs in pick 185, more than the board wanted. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
Circle this one: Jacob Cowing at Round 7, Pick 8 is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
