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

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Max Bredeson, 147 picks early at the 208th overall pick.

Whatever Fernando Mendoza becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. The Scott value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the 1st overall pick they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick47 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
No edge and no loss on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in the 47th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Value with a capital V on Jake Golday in pick 67, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick78 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
A slide stopped in No. 78, with Keionte Scott worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Emmett Johnson
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emmett Johnson. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick117 Rnd4 De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling at Round 4, Pick 17 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
They took J.C. Davis at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
They paid sticker price for Zxavian Harris in the 149th overall pick, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick159 Rnd5 Malik Benson
Malik Benson is a better player than Round 5, Pick 19 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Max Bredeson
A real head-scratcher, Max Bredeson in slot 208 is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
