Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C+
ValueD NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Commanders get a C+.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Commanders spent the 29th pick on Jared Ivey, a name the board had a full 50 spots lower. It washes out to a C+, no better and no worse.

Leaving wide receiver unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Fannin Jr..

So much rides on Jared Ivey that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Jared Ivey
In the 29th pick they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick61 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Nice patience on Harold Fannin Jr., who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 29. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick128 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in slot 128 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick205 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
Caleb Rogers at the 205th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick245 Rnd7 Davin Vann
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Davin Vann. A need, and now a little less of one.
