Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
James should have been long gone. The Raiders pounced, and earned a B+.

The Raiders ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

The James value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Owens has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Raiders clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They did well to land J.J. McCarthy in slot 33, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick77 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at the Round 3 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick92 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
A tidy little value on Devontez Walker in pick No. 92, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111 Rnd4 DJ James
They robbed the room for DJ James here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
By-the-book stuff, Bucky Irving at pick 134 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick141 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
They jumped the gun on Trevor Keegan, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick208 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Nothing to complain about; Edefuan Ulofoshio went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick229 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
Tyler Owens in Round 7, Pick 9 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
