Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Raiders turned the phones into found money: A-.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Raiders took Solomon Tuliaupupu at the 182nd overall pick, roughly 109 spots before his name belonged. Add it all up and it grades out a clean A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker at No. 28 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick40 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Anthony Hill Jr. in the Round 2 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
A quiet steal in the 59th pick: Jake Slaughter for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick65 Rnd3 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington at pick No. 65 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It fills a real need, too.
Pick101 Rnd4 John Mateer
John Mateer in slot 101 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick109 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds at pick 109 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick118 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ar'maj Reed-Adams well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136 Rnd4 Eric Rivers
A straight-up fair deal on Eric Rivers at No. 136, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
No drama and no debate, Xavier Nwankpa went about where he belonged in pick 175. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick182 Rnd6 Solomon Tuliaupupu
They left a pile of value on the table to take Solomon Tuliaupupu this early at pick No. 182. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jalon Daniels
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalon Daniels in Round 7, Pick 1. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
