Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Commanders robbed the room for Ferguson. Final grade: C.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Commanders shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. It nets out a thoroughly average C.

The Ferguson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Every board in the league had Smith lower, and that gap is the story. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

So much rides on Mike Green that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Mike Green
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value.
Pick61 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
They let Marcus Mbow come to them and pounced at pick 61. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111 Rnd4 Savion Williams
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Savion Williams in pick No. 111, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
A slide stopped in the 114th pick, with Lathan Ransom worth more than the price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick128 Rnd4 Jacob Parrish
They did well to land Jacob Parrish in the Round 4 slot, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick140 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at the 140th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Nothing to complain about; Tahj Brooks went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Howard Cross III
They took Howard Cross III at par in Round 7, Pick 14, which is nothing to complain about. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
A big swing on Jaylin Smith at pick 245, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
