FutureD
The Raiders bled value on every deal, hence the D. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Raiders did exactly that with Garrett Dellinger in slot 222. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
The Mukuba pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and tight end. The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.
In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a building block for the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick30
Rnd1
Jihaad Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a three-down second-level presence, reach and all.
Pick33
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in pick No. 33 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick37
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
A reasonable price with a little left over, Omarion Hampton in slot 37. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick56
Rnd2
Darien Porter
Darien Porter at pick 56 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick62
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to the 62nd overall pick, and they scooped it up. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick67
Rnd3
Jaylin Noel
A clean, defensible pick in slot 67 with a little surplus value in Jaylin Noel. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at pick No. 68 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick94
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Andrew Mukuba while clear needs at edge rusher and tight end sat open.
Pick108
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander slipping to pick 108 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick132
Rnd4
Kyle McCord
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kyle McCord at Round 4, Pick 30 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick143
Rnd5
Bhayshul Tuten
They jumped the gun on Bhayshul Tuten, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the 180th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick213
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Isaac TeSlaa well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215
Rnd6
John Williams
They reached into another round for John Williams, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick222
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
