Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The tape said wait; the Commanders did not. Collin Oliver went at Round 5, Pick 9, a good 151 picks before the board was ready. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. Alexander falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Joe Alt gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick61 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Nice patience on Tre Harris, who had no business lasting to No. 61. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick79 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
The board fumbled TreVeyon Henderson all the way to the 79th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick86 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
A cornerback of that caliber at the 86th pick is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Collin Oliver
A wild overpay on Collin Oliver in the Round 5 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick207 Rnd6 Willie Lampkin
Willie Lampkin at Round 6, Pick 29 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor in pick 238 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at slot 250 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
