Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB FutureB-
Kiser should have been long gone. The Commanders pounced, and earned a B.

Call it larceny. Jack Kiser sat on the board until pick 245, and the Commanders did not need to be asked twice. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

They will need Riley to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Leaving tight end unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Cameron Williams
They paid sticker price for Cameron Williams in No. 38, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick61 Rnd2 Jared Ivey
Jared Ivey at Round 2, Pick 29 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins slipping to the 81st overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
A quiet steal in pick 119: Jordan Phillips for less than the market said. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick128 Rnd4 Quincy Riley
Quincy Riley in pick No. 128 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick205 Rnd6 Woody Marks
Woody Marks in the Round 6 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick245 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at the 245th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
