Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders robbed the room for Everette. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Daylen Everette at slot 117 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. Every board in the league had Nussmeier lower, and that gap is the story.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In pick 1 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Garrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier in the 36th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick67 Rnd3 Austin Siereveld
No drama and no debate, Austin Siereveld went about where he belonged in the 67th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jacob Rodriguez in slot 102. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick117 Rnd4 Daylen Everette
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 117 is the definition of value, full stop. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Eric Rivers
By-the-book stuff, Eric Rivers at Round 4, Pick 35 squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick176 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp in pick No. 176 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
They took Le'Veon Moss at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick184 Rnd6 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at the 184th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaac Smith
They paid sticker price for Isaac Smith in the 219th overall pick, and that is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
