Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureA+
The Raiders leave the weekend clear winners: A-.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Raiders took Sam Hartman a full 23 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. That Edwards pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

In short, they turned a good board into a better roster, and it shows.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 JC Latham
No drama and no debate, JC Latham went about where he belonged in the Round 1 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick54 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They took Xavier Worthy at par in Round 2, Pick 22, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick96 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson slipping to pick No. 96 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick148 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 148th overall pick is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick206 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards in pick 206 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick235 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at No. 235 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Frank Gore Jr. at the Round 7 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
