FutureB-
The Commanders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. The real work happened on the phones. The Commanders fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with.
The Commanders indulged a want in Moore while a need in edge rusher and quarterback stayed open. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
That Jones Jr. pick is the receipt they will wave around later. If Brooks pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick63
Rnd2
TreVeyon Henderson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TreVeyon Henderson in Round 2, Pick 31. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick96
Rnd3
Kevin Winston Jr.
No edge and no loss on Kevin Winston Jr. in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick97
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
They paid sticker price for Zy Alexander in No. 97, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick133
Rnd4
Emery Jones Jr.
A quiet steal in slot 133: Emery Jones Jr. for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Malachi Moore while clear needs at edge rusher and quarterback sat open.
Pick161
Rnd5
Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra slipping to the 161st pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205
Rnd6
Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks at the 205th overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick226
Rnd7
Ja'Corey Brooks
A reach for Ja'Corey Brooks in pick No. 226; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick245
Rnd7
Ty Hamilton
They paid a round early for Ty Hamilton in pick No. 245, more than the board wanted. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick251
Rnd7
Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in Round 7, Pick 35 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick257
Rnd7
Jaylin Smith
By-the-book stuff, Jaylin Smith at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
