Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Commanders found their guy under center in Williams: B+.

The Commanders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tyler Guyton, the No. 39 name on the board, in the Round 3 slot.

Whatever Caleb Williams becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped wide receiver, which is a strange place to end up.

The Lloyd reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In pick 2 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A reach for Chris Braswell in No. 40; a little patience would have been rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick67 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Somehow Patrick Paul was still sitting there in No. 67, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick100 Rnd3 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at pick No. 100 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A tidy little value on Zak Zinter in pick 102, a step better than break-even. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick109 Rnd4 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd at Round 4, Pick 9 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the 141st overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford at slot 181 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick223 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Taking Josh Proctor in the 223rd pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
