The real work happened on the phones. The Raiders fleeced their trade partners, turning their picks into a noticeably bigger pile than they started with. Very little went wrong, and the A is earned.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Landing McCoy that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. C.J. Stroud gives the group a proven body among the projects.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.
