Grading the Commanders' Draft

Grade: A-

Best Pick: Josh Conerly Jr., No. 29 Overall

What We Liked: Great players all the way down. Conerly’s explosive movement skills should make him a great fit for move-blocking and keeping a clean pocket for Jayden Daniels whether he chooses to scramble or not. Trey Amos deserved to be taken in the first round and should boost the secondary and help them recover from their early 2023 choice of Emmanuel Forbes. Even their late-round picks of Jaylin Lane and Kain Medrano stand to make an impact with their impressive athleticism.

Not Sure About: The Commanders could have paid a little closer attention to need, as they neglected an empty edge room and did not address the back end of their secondary. While I love Conerly, he may be getting thrown into the fire here before developing as an anchor, which could come back to bite the Commanders as they plan for the future, especially if they move him from his natural position of offensive tackle.
