Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Commanders, and a B- to prove it.

The Commanders treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick No. 156 on Patrick Payton a full 64 spots early. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The Reese steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with tight end the one that mattered most. The back end got a real overhaul.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get an island corner at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick81 Rnd3 Arvell Reese
Arvell Reese at pick No. 81 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick156 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Patrick Payton well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick201 Rnd6 Tree Babalade
Fair-plus on Tree Babalade, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick212 Rnd6 Shamar Easter
A reach on Shamar Easter in pick 212; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick235 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
Value said wait; Da'Shawn Womack in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
