Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB
The Raiders let Mukuba fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Raiders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Andrew Mukuba, the No. 81 name on the board, in No. 108. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Every board in the league had Vinson lower, and that gap is the story.

They bet on numbers rather than a single high pick.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Good price on Ashton Jeanty in pick 6, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Somehow Jalon Walker was still sitting there in slot 45, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick68 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A premium they did not need to pay, Darien Porter a notch or two before his time. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in Round 4, Pick 6 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick143 Rnd5 Ty Hamilton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ty Hamilton in the 143rd pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
A quarterback of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick174 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
You do not let a cornerback like O'Donnell Fortune reach No. 174 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick No. 180 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick193 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
KeAndre Lambert-Smith at Round 6, Pick 17 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick211 Rnd6 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at No. 211 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in pick 213 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick215 Rnd6 Carson Vinson
They reached into another round for Carson Vinson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick222 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Isaac TeSlaa well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock slipping to pick No. 232 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
