Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Raiders: B.

If confidence were a draft strategy, the Raiders would have aced it. Isaac Guerendo at the 86th overall pick is 52 spots clear of where he belonged. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Legette falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 19th pick they get a cornerstone up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick52 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
No edge and no loss on T.J. Tampa in the 52nd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick59 Rnd2 Cade Stover
Cade Stover at pick No. 59 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick77 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
They will replay Xavier Legette at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Isaac Guerendo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Isaac Guerendo well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick99 Rnd3 Kris Abrams-Draine
The board had Kris Abrams-Draine higher than Round 3, Pick 36, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Brennan Jackson
They liked Brennan Jackson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 112th overall pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick123 Rnd4 Beaux Limmer
They left a pile of value on the table to take Beaux Limmer this early at slot 123. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jordan Magee
They jumped the gun on Jordan Magee, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick208 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson in No. 208 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223 Rnd7 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick229 Rnd7 KT Leveston
Quietly one of the better values of the day, KT Leveston at the 229th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick254 Rnd7 Jacob Monk
Steal is underselling it; Jacob Monk at pick No. 254 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
