Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders cashed the board's mistake on Bassa: B.

When a board-topper like Jeffrey Bassa slides to slot 235, you do not overthink it, and the Commanders did not.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. Morris has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

Good work on the whole, with tight end the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 26th pick they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They will replay Nick Emmanwori at No. 59 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick79 Rnd3 Tez Johnson
They jumped the gun on Tez Johnson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick146 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
You do not let a running back like Cam Skattebo reach slot 146 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Circle this one: Chris Paul Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
Taking Jeffrey Bassa in the 235th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick246 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They talked themselves into Micah Morris at Round 7, Pick 30, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
