Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Flashes of a plan, unevenly run, for the Commanders: C+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Commanders spent the 7th pick on Blake Miller, a name the board had a full 53 spots lower.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Klare. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Blake Miller
In pick No. 7 they get an anchor for the offensive line, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick71 Rnd3 Max Klare
Somehow Max Klare was still sitting there in slot 71, and they pounced on premier tight end value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145 Rnd5 Quintayvious Hutchins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Quintayvious Hutchins. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick185 Rnd6 Tyren Montgomery
Nice patience on Tyren Montgomery, who had no business lasting to the 185th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick196 Rnd6 Vincent Anthony Jr.
Vincent Anthony Jr. in Round 6, Pick 17 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick223 Rnd7 Josh Moten
Josh Moten slid further than he should have, and No. 223 is lovely value for the cornerback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
