The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Winston Jr.: B-. Call it larceny. Kevin Winston Jr. sat on the board until pick No. 128, and the Commanders did not need to be asked twice. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.
They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. On the needs board they went 3 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
They trusted the board more than the depth chart.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In Round 1, Pick 29 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at fair value. More want than need.
Pick61
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
Nice patience on TreVeyon Henderson, who had no business lasting to the 61st overall pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick205
Rnd6
KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Good price on KeAndre Lambert-Smith in slot 205, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick245
Rnd7
Carson Vinson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Carson Vinson in pick 245. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
