Command Parameter Datagrid SelectedItems is null

So I found this answer Pass command parameter from the xaml which I think got me most of the way there. The problem I am having is when I select a row in the datagrid it triggers the command but the selected items is null.

What I don't know, and suspect is the issue, is what type should I be passing the selecteditems to in the view model? Currently I am using IList as shown in my viewmodel code:

namespace Project_Manager.ViewModel
{
public class ProjectSummaryViewModel : ObservableObject
{
    public ProjectSummaryViewModel()
    {
        ProjectSummary = DatabaseFunctions.getProjectSummaryData();
    }

    private ObservableCollection<ProjectSummaryModel> projectsummary;
    public ObservableCollection<ProjectSummaryModel> ProjectSummary
    {
        get { return projectsummary; }
        set
        {
            projectsummary = value;
            OnPropertyChanged("ProjectSummary");
        }
    }

    public ICommand DeleteRowCommand
    {
        get { return new ParamDelegateCommand<IList<ProjectSummaryModel>>(DeleteRow); }
    }

    private void DeleteRow(IList<ProjectSummaryModel> projectsummaryselected)
    {
        string name = projectsummaryselected[0].ProjectName;
    }
}
}

The XAML view code for the datagrid looks like this:

<Window x:Class="Project_Manager.MainWindow"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

        <MenuItem Header="Project Management">
            <MenuItem Header="New Project"/>
        </MenuItem>

    </Menu>-->

    <StackPanel Grid.Row="1" Orientation="Horizontal">

    </StackPanel>

    <Grid Grid.Row="2">
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
            <RowDefinition/>
        </Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <TextBlock Text="Current Projects" Background="LemonChiffon"/>
        <DataGrid x:Name="SummaryDataGrid" ItemsSource="{Binding ProjectSummary}" Grid.Row="1" AutoGenerateColumns="True" Style="{StaticResource DataGridStyle}">
            <DataGrid.ContextMenu>
                <ContextMenu>

                </ContextMenu>
            </DataGrid.ContextMenu>
        </DataGrid>
    </Grid>


    <!--<DataGrid.Columns>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Project Name" Binding=""/>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Team Name"/>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Latest Update"/>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Date Started"/>
            </DataGrid.Columns>-->

    <!--<Grid Grid.Row="3">
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>

        --><!--<TextBlock Text="Completed Projects" Background="LightGreen" Visibility="{Binding Source={x:Reference Name=ViewCompleted}, Path=IsChecked, Converter={StaticResource BooleanToVisibilityConverter}}"/>
        <DataGrid Grid.Row="1" AutoGenerateColumns="False" Style="{StaticResource DataGridStyle}" Visibility="{Binding Source={x:Reference Name=ViewCompleted}, Path=IsChecked, Converter={StaticResource BooleanToVisibilityConverter}}">
            <DataGrid.Columns>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Project Name"/>
                <DataGridTextColumn Header="Team"/>

            </DataGrid.Columns>
        </DataGrid>--><!--
    </Grid>-->
</Grid>

And just in case this is a command implementation problem here is the custom Delegate Command that I am using:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Input;

namespace Project_Manager.Common
{
public class ParamDelegateCommand<T> : ICommand
{
    public event EventHandler CanExecuteChanged;

    private Action<T> executeMethod;

    //private Func<T, bool> canExecuteMethod;

    public ParamDelegateCommand(Action<T> executeMethod) //, Func<T, bool> canExecuteMethod)
    {
        this.executeMethod = executeMethod;
        //this.canExecuteMethod = canExecuteMethod;
    }

    public bool CanExecute(object parameter)
    {
        return true; //canExecuteMethod((T)parameter);
    }

    public void Execute(object parameter)
    {
        executeMethod((T)parameter);
    }
}
}

I have searched around and can find plenty of examples for the XAML binding I just can't seem to find the other half of it. So what type should be in the viewmodel? Alternatively what is the actual problem?

Edit: Just noticed an error the debug window that might help someone

System.Windows.Data Error: 4 : Cannot find source for binding with reference 'RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType='System.Windows.Controls.DataGrid', AncestorLevel='1''. BindingExpression:Path=SelectedItems; DataItem=null; target element is 'MenuItem' (Name=''); target property is 'CommandParameter' (type 'Object')

If you are using context menu please refer the below code to get SelectedItems.

<ContextMenu>
    <MenuItem Header="Delete Row" Command="{Binding DeleteRowCommand}" CommandParameter="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type ContextMenu}}, Path=PlacementTarget.SelectedItems}"/>
</ContextMenu>

Also Selecteditems is an IList so change the code like below.

public ICommand DeleteRowCommand
{
    get { return new ParamDelegateCommand<IList>(DeleteRow); }
}

private void DeleteRow(IList projectsummaryselected)
{
    string name = (projectsummaryselected[0] as ProjectSummaryModel).ProjectName;
}
