Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Raiders: B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Trinidad Chambliss in the 67th pick, a good 50 spots before the room expected him.

That Rivers pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In the 1st pick they get a bendy edge with upside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at the 36th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss at Round 3, Pick 3 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick102 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at No. 102 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick117 Rnd4 Chandler Rivers
Steal is underselling it; Chandler Rivers at the Round 4 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
Value with a capital V on Jakobe Thomas in slot 134, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick174 Rnd5 Taylen Green
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Taylen Green at the 174th overall pick is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180 Rnd6 Dane Key
No drama and no debate, Dane Key went about where he belonged in pick 180. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick183 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
The board had Oscar Delp higher than the 183rd pick, and the tight end fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd7 Conner Weigman
Circle this one: Conner Weigman at pick No. 219 is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
