Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
Maye is the plan now, and the Commanders grade out a B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Commanders spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Tampa.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 2nd pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in No. 36 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick42 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 42 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick67 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
A slide stopped in pick No. 67, with T.J. Tampa worth more than the price. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick78 Rnd3 Cade Stover
They did well to land Cade Stover in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100 Rnd3 Jaden Hicks
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jaden Hicks at Round 3, Pick 37. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick139 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
Fair-plus on Roger Rosengarten, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg at the 152nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick222 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
A straight-up fair deal on JD Bertrand at the 222nd pick, value and slot in agreement. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at Round 7, Pick 27 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
