Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
The Commanders robbed the room for Starks. Final grade: B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Commanders were there to profit. Malaki Starks, the No. 26 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 63. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Mike Green
In pick 32 they get a problem off the edge. A real need, handled.
Pick63 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in the Round 2 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick96 Rnd3 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at Round 3, Pick 32 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick128 Rnd4 Brashard Smith
By-the-book stuff, Brashard Smith at No. 128 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick134 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at slot 134 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick205 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Steal is underselling it; Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 205 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick245 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie at the 245th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson in the 251st overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick257 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in the 257th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
