Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureD
Penix Jr. is the plan now, and the Raiders grade out a B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Raiders committed. Michael Penix Jr. is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They will need Henderson to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in slot 44 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick77 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
They took Brenden Rice at par in the 77th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Max Melton
A straight-up fair deal on Max Melton at the 112th pick, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
A premium they did not need to pay, LaDarius Henderson a notch or two before his time. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick190 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They jumped the gun on Curtis Jacobs, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick234 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in No. 234 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
