Las Vegas Raiders

A sensible, unshowy class lands the Raiders a B.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Kyle McCord in No. 146, a good 84 spots before the room expected him. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The Mondon Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.20 · Pick 20 · Shavon Revel Jr. · CB · rank 16
In pick 20 they get an island corner. Exactly the need they had to hit.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Jalon Walker · LB · rank 25
Jalon Walker in the 39th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Dylan Fairchild · OG · rank 56
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dylan Fairchild at the Round 3 slot is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Tyleik Williams · DT · rank 54
Tyleik Williams at pick No. 70 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
R3.20 · Pick 84 · Colston Loveland · TE · rank 46
Colston Loveland in Round 3, Pick 20 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.21 · Pick 85 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 71
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Andrew Mukuba in No. 85. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R4.5 · Pick 106 · TreVeyon Henderson · RB · rank 61
They barely believed it either: TreVeyon Henderson still on the board at Round 4, Pick 5. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.9 · Pick 146 · Kyle McCord · QB · rank 230
Kyle McCord at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R6.8 · Pick 183 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 105
The board fumbled Smael Mondon Jr. all the way to slot 183, and they scooped it up. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
R6.12 · Pick 187 · Sonny Styles · S · rank 125
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Sonny Styles in the 187th overall pick, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Deion Burks · WR · rank 259
This one needs a full-page explanation: Deion Burks in the 212th pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Xavier Truss · OT · rank 270
They left a pile of value on the table to take Xavier Truss this early at pick No. 216. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.7 · Pick 223 · Davison Igbinosun · CB · rank 220
Davison Igbinosun at No. 223 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
