Las Vegas Raiders

Grand theft in pick No. 213: the Raiders steal Shough and grade out a B-.

The Raiders did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tyler Shough fell into No. 213. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Every board in the league had Campbell lower, and that gap is the story. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · Josh Simmons · OT · rank 17
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R1.25 · Pick 25 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 41
In pick No. 25 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, even if it was a touch early. Need was not the driver here.
R2.1 · Pick 33 · Emeka Egbuka · WR · rank 25
A quiet steal in pick 33: Emeka Egbuka for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 21
The board had Kenneth Grant higher than slot 37, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R2.26 · Pick 58 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 55
TreVeyon Henderson at the 58th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Darien Porter · CB · rank 75
Darien Porter at the 68th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.25 · Pick 89 · Jayden Higgins · WR · rank 68
They barely believed it either: Jayden Higgins still on the board at No. 89. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.6 · Pick 108 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 86
Steal is underselling it; Andrew Mukuba at Round 4, Pick 6 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R5.5 · Pick 143 · Brashard Smith · RB · rank 111
Brashard Smith in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.4 · Pick 180 · Bhayshul Tuten · RB · rank 151
The board fumbled Bhayshul Tuten all the way to Round 6, Pick 4, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.37 · Pick 213 · Tyler Shough · QB · rank 136
Tyler Shough at the 213th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.39 · Pick 215 · Robert Longerbeam · CB · rank 207
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 215, where Robert Longerbeam graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
