The Raiders kept it disciplined and banked a B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Raiders started one anyway for Joe Milton III, 27 picks ahead of schedule. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

However the rest shakes out, Green at that price is a win they earned. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 5 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.13 · Pick 13 · Taliese Fuaga · OT · rank 17
In the 13th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R2.25 · Pick 57 · Tyler Guyton · OT · rank 41
Tyler Guyton is a better player than No. 57 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Braden Fiske · DL · rank 84
They took Braden Fiske at par in pick No. 77, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Mike Sainristil · CB · rank 82
Mike Sainristil slipping to slot 91 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R3.34 · Pick 97 · Khyree Jackson · CB · rank 105
A conviction pick on Khyree Jackson at the Round 3 slot that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R4.12 · Pick 112 · Dominick Puni · OT · rank 103
A tidy bit of business in pick 112, where Dominick Puni graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 164
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at the 137th overall pick. It fills a real need, too.
R5.14 · Pick 150 · Austin Booker · DL-EDGE · rank 159
Austin Booker in No. 150 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R5.21 · Pick 157 · Cedric Johnson · DE-EDGE · rank 160
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Johnson at pick No. 157 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R6.15 · Pick 190 · Eric Watts · DL-EDGE · rank 189
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Eric Watts. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.14 · Pick 234 · Jalen Green · S · rank 212
You do not let a safety like Jalen Green reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
