Draft Grade — Raiders

FutureB-
Nobody dealt better than the Raiders this weekend: B+. The Raiders did not so much draft Garrett Dellinger as overpay for him, 64 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Ayomanor.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. With edge rusher unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Will Johnson
In No. 17 they get a lockdown presence outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Josh Conerly Jr.
No drama and no debate, Josh Conerly Jr. went about where he belonged in slot 33. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick37
Rnd2
Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III is a better player than pick 37 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick67
Rnd3
TreVeyon Henderson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and TreVeyon Henderson at the 67th pick is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick68
Rnd3
Carson Schwesinger
By-the-book stuff, Carson Schwesinger at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick80
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 80, where Quinshon Judkins graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick81
Rnd3
Andrew Mukuba
A straight-up fair deal on Andrew Mukuba at No. 81, value and slot in agreement. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94
Rnd3
Elic Ayomanor
A wide receiver of that caliber at Round 3, Pick 30 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick104
Rnd4
Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at pick 104 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It fills a real need, too.
Pick108
Rnd4
Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in the 108th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119
Rnd4
Kevin Winston Jr.
A surprising call. With edge rusher still to address, they spent the 119th pick on Kevin Winston Jr., a safety they were not short of.
Pick143
Rnd5
Aeneas Peebles
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Aeneas Peebles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick180
Rnd6
RJ Harvey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing RJ Harvey in the Round 6 slot. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick213
Rnd6
Oronde Gadsden II
They robbed the room for Oronde Gadsden II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick222
Rnd7
Bilhal Kone
A reach on Bilhal Kone in the 222nd overall pick; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick232
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
A big swing on Garrett Dellinger at No. 232, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
