Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall

FutureB-
The Raiders checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. The rest of the league had time to spare on Quinn Ewers; the Raiders did not wait, grabbing him 24 spots ahead at slot 68.
For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The skill positions did well by the weekend.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the Round 1 slot they get a difference-maker at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37
Rnd2
Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at No. 37 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68
Rnd3
Quinn Ewers
Quinn Ewers in Round 3, Pick 4 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
