Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders let King fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Commanders were there to profit. Kobe King, the No. 125 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 205th pick. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most. They trusted the board more than the depth chart.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In No. 29 they get a downhill hitter at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick61 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tre Harris at Round 2, Pick 29 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick128 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A tidy bit of business in the 128th overall pick, where Emery Jones Jr. graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick205 Rnd6 Kobe King
Kobe King in the 205th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick245 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
The board had Isaac TeSlaa higher than the Round 7 slot, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
