Las Vegas Raiders

The Raiders answered their biggest question with Sanders. Grade: B-.

The Raiders treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending the 106th overall pick on Oluwafemi Oladejo a full 122 spots early. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

The Higgins pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Shedeur Sanders gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The cornerback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but cornerback.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.6 · Pick 6 · Shedeur Sanders · QB · rank 6
In Round 1, Pick 6 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
R2.5 · Pick 37 · Tyler Booker · OG · rank 38
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Booker. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Omarion Hampton · RB · rank 30
You do not let a running back like Omarion Hampton reach No. 68 and blink. They did not. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.9 · Pick 73 · Andrew Mukuba · S · rank 69
A tidy little value on Andrew Mukuba in the 73rd pick, a step better than break-even. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.5 · Pick 106 · Oluwafemi Oladejo · LB-EDGE · rank 228
They reached a country mile for Oluwafemi Oladejo at pick No. 106, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R5.5 · Pick 142 · Dont'e Thornton Jr. · WR · rank 184
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 142 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R6.3 · Pick 178 · Billy Bowman Jr. · S · rank 119
Somehow Billy Bowman Jr. was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 3, and they pounced on premier safety value. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
R6.37 · Pick 212 · Cody Simon · LB · rank 136
Cody Simon in No. 212 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R6.41 · Pick 216 · Hunter Wohler · S · rank 234
They talked themselves into Hunter Wohler at pick No. 216, and the board did not agree. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.6 · Pick 222 · Jay Higgins · LB · rank 134
Jay Higgins at the 222nd overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
