Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueD NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureA
More right than wrong for the Raiders, and a B to prove it.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Raiders took Joe Milton III at the 40th pick, roughly 169 spots before his name belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Landing Bertrand that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

The Benjamin Morrison deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Cooper DeJean
In the 24th pick they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick40 Rnd2 Joe Milton III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Joe Milton III well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick57 Rnd2 Brandon Coleman
Brandon Coleman at the 57th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
Marshawn Kneeland at pick No. 77 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ben Sinnott at No. 112. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick148 Rnd5 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo is a better player than the Round 5 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jalen Coker
Fair-plus on Jalen Coker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick220 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
Julian Pearl in slot 220 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223 Rnd7 Trey Taylor
No edge and no loss on Trey Taylor in the 223rd pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick229 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
A slide stopped in pick No. 229, with JD Bertrand worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick246 Rnd7 Frank Crum
No drama and no debate, Frank Crum went about where he belonged in Round 7, Pick 26. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
