Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Raiders drew a line under the quarterback search with Moore: B+.

The Raiders put a flag in the ground for Solomon Tuliaupupu, 155 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

Dante Moore gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They banked enough surplus on Sarratt to cover a lot of smaller sins.

That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In pick 3 they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick18 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In Round 1, Pick 18 they get a downhill hitter at safety at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick33 Rnd2 Arvell Reese
Circle this one: Arvell Reese at the 33rd overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick46 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 2 slot with a little surplus value in Olaivavega Ioane. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick65 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt in pick No. 65 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick101 Rnd4 Kage Casey
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kage Casey this early at No. 101. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick118 Rnd4 Eric O'Neill
Value said wait; Eric O'Neill in the 118th pick says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Solomon Tuliaupupu
They reached a country mile for Solomon Tuliaupupu at slot 136, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
