Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall
B+
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Raiders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. Whoever sat across the table from the Raiders should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.
They punted on running back, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The Stribling pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Ponds falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.
Good work on the whole, with running back the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick44
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
They paid sticker price for Emmanuel Pregnon in slot 44, and that is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick61
Rnd2
Jake Slaughter
A tidy bit of business in the 61st pick, where Jake Slaughter graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67
Rnd3
Carter Smith
Carter Smith in the 67th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102
Rnd4
Jack Endries
Good price on Jack Endries in the Round 4 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112
Rnd4
Caden Curry
The board had Caden Curry higher than Round 4, Pick 12, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick117
Rnd4
D'Angelo Ponds
Nice patience on D'Angelo Ponds, who had no business lasting to No. 117. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick123
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in pick No. 123 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153
Rnd5
Taylen Green
A premium they did not need to pay, Taylen Green a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick174
Rnd5
Bud Clark
Bud Clark in the Round 5 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick183
Rnd6
De'Zhaun Stribling
They left a pile of value on the table to take De'Zhaun Stribling this early at pick No. 183. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
