Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Raiders robbed the room for Spears-Jennings. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Raiders watched Robert Spears-Jennings slide 78 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The Gadsden II reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 6 they get a lead back with juice at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They let Kenneth Grant come to them and pounced at pick 33. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick37 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Value with a capital V on Emeka Egbuka in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond slipping to slot 68 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick73 Rnd3 Will Howard
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Will Howard well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick107 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
A big swing on Oronde Gadsden II at No. 107, well ahead of any board in the building. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kevin Winston Jr.
Taking Kevin Winston Jr. in pick No. 144 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick182 Rnd6 Raheim Sanders
Somehow Raheim Sanders was still sitting there in the 182nd overall pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick218 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They talked themselves into Miles Frazier at the 218th pick, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick224 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings in Round 7, Pick 6 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
