I mentioned the Commanders' trade with the Eagles above, and Washington ended up with three second-round picks.
New GM Adam Peters landed a game-wrecker for the middle of his defense. He got the best slot corner in this class. And he got my second-ranked tight end, a player who could make plays in the pass game and block his butt off in the run game. This is a home run Round 2 class for the Commanders, who entered this draft with a lot of holes.
To finish out Round 3, Washington took wideout
Luke McCaffrey, which was a reach based on my rankings. Still,
Christian's brother has the physical traits to be an intriguing flier.
