Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall D+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The phones sank the Commanders this weekend: D+.

The Commanders torched the value chart for Kendall Milton, taking him 129 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. The math is unkind, and the D+ follows.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. A whole weekend of picks and cornerback is somehow still a want.

Spending an early pick on OLB-EDGE with cornerback, edge rusher and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 15th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick32 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in slot 32 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick64 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
They let Ja'Tavion Sanders come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 32. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at No. 100 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick102 Rnd4 Javon Solomon
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went OLB-EDGE with Javon Solomon while clear needs at cornerback, edge rusher and other spots sat open.
Pick141 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at the 141st pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Fair-plus on Curtis Jacobs, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick223 Rnd7 Kendall Milton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kendall Milton this early at Round 7, Pick 3. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
