The Raiders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Tre Harris, the No. 192 name on the board, in No. 235. The bottom line is a respectable B+.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Every board in the league had Stover lower, and that gap is the story.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 22
A straight-up fair deal on Dallas Turner at Round 1, Pick 21, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.14 · Pick 46 · Cooper Beebe · OG · rank 49
No edge and no loss on Cooper Beebe in slot 46; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.20 · Pick 52 · Jermaine Burton · WR · rank 56
By-the-book stuff, Jermaine Burton at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.14 · Pick 78 · Jaylin Simpson · CB · rank 78
Jaylin Simpson in pick 78 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R3.22 · Pick 85 · Zak Zinter · OG · rank 82
A clean, defensible pick in the 85th pick with a little surplus value in Zak Zinter. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.14 · Pick 114 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 117
They paid sticker price for Khyree Jackson in the 114th overall pick, and that is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.20 · Pick 120 · Cade Stover · TE · rank 131
Cade Stover in pick No. 120 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.15 · Pick 151 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 139
They let Tyler Guyton come to them and pounced at No. 151. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.21 · Pick 157 · Cedric Gray · LB · rank 142
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Cedric Gray for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R6.17 · Pick 192 · Devin Neal · RB · rank 178
The board had Devin Neal higher than pick 192, and the running back fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.15 · Pick 235 · Tre Harris · WR · rank 192
They barely believed it either: Tre Harris still on the board at Round 7, Pick 15. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · Dwight McGlothern · CB · rank 229
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dwight McGlothern at No. 241 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
