Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Commanders won the night they stopped Stone from sliding. Grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: David Stone, pick 68, roughly 50 picks past where he belonged.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped tight end, which is a strange place to end up. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Dylan Stewart
In pick No. 4 they get a problem off the edge. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
Good price on Charlie Becker in Round 2, Pick 4, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68 Rnd3 David Stone
Circle this one: David Stone at the 68th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Samson Okunlola
Nice patience on Samson Okunlola, who had no business lasting to pick 106. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick143 Rnd5 Earl Little Jr.
They barely believed it either: Earl Little Jr. still on the board at the Round 5 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick183 Rnd6 John Curry
A quiet steal in No. 183: John Curry for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Edwin Spillman
Edwin Spillman at slot 225 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A minor itch, scratched.
