Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureA
The Raiders found their guy under center in Mendoza: B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Raiders spent their marquee pick on Fernando Mendoza, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Lew. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value.
Pick67 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
A tidy bit of business in the 67th pick, where Josiah Trotter graded well above the range. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick102 Rnd4 Connor Lew
Connor Lew in pick No. 102 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Will Lee III
They let Will Lee III come to them and pounced at the 134th overall pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Kage Casey
A straight-up fair deal on Kage Casey at pick 155, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175 Rnd5 Cyrus Allen
Cyrus Allen at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson at slot 185 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick208 Rnd6 Bobby Jamison-Travis
Bobby Jamison-Travis at No. 208 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd7 Kaelon Black
They paid sticker price for Kaelon Black in slot 219, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
