Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D+
ValueF NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The board sent warnings the Commanders ignored, and it shows: D+.

The Johntay Cook selection is the head-turner. The Commanders reached 547 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D+ is the result.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Maiava. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

It is a steep hill from here, and the grade knows it.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Johntay Cook
They left a pile of value on the table to take Johntay Cook this early at the 9th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick41 Rnd2 Christian Gray
A big swing on Christian Gray at pick No. 41, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick73 Rnd3 Quinten Joyner
Quinten Joyner at the Round 3 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111 Rnd4 Isaac Smith
A wild overpay on Isaac Smith in Round 4, Pick 9, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jayden Maiava
A top-tier quarterback at a bargain, Jayden Maiava in slot 148, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick188 Rnd6 Zereoue Williams
Circle this one: Zereoue Williams at pick 188 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick230 Rnd7 DJ McKinney
Steal is underselling it; DJ McKinney at the 230th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
