Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Raiders cashed the board's mistake on Howard: B-.

The board owed the Raiders one, and it paid up: Will Howard, the No. 104 name on the board, sitting there at slot 143 like a gift left on the doorstep.

They are betting Shough proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Najee Harris gives the group a proven body among the projects.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In the 6th overall pick they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jayden Higgins this early at slot 37. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick68 Rnd3 Tyler Shough
A wild overpay on Tyler Shough in the 68th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick108 Rnd4 Charles Grant
Charles Grant in pick No. 108 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick143 Rnd5 Will Howard
They robbed the room for Will Howard here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick180 Rnd6 James Burnip
James Burnip at Round 6, Pick 4 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick213 Rnd6 Thomas Fidone II
Thomas Fidone II at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
A tidy little value on Jason Marshall Jr. in pick 214, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick215 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
They let Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson come to them and pounced at the 215th pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
