Buck DRAFTING FOR THECommanders
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Commanders
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesB-
FutureB-
The Commanders bet the future on Daniels. The board says B-. Start where it matters. The Commanders took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.
Spann-Ford has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jackson.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick2
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
In No. 2 they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36
Rnd2
Graham Barton
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Graham Barton at pick 36 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
They took Chris Braswell at par in the 40th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
The board had Kingsley Suamataia higher than the Round 3 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick78
Rnd3
Cade Stover
Nothing to complain about; Cade Stover went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick100
Rnd3
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 100th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick139
Rnd5
Tommy Eichenberg
No edge and no loss on Tommy Eichenberg in slot 139; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick152
Rnd5
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in pick No. 152 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick222
Rnd7
Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at slot 222 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
