Nobody had Jordan Travis this high, and it is not close. The Raiders reached 61 spots to get him at pick 112.
On value alone, Greenfield makes the weekend a net positive. The phones were where this weekend was really won. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 13 they get a true top target. Exactly the need they had to hit.
A slide stopped in pick 44, with Ennis Rakestraw Jr. worth more than the price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
They reached into another round for Blake Fisher, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jordan Travis this early at No. 112. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
They robbed the room for James Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Julian Pearl at slot 208 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Somehow Garret Greenfield was still sitting there in pick No. 256, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
