Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Raiders finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a A-.

The search is over. The Raiders handed the keys to Fernando Mendoza, and the whole operation now runs on his development. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

The Smith pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Raiders paired the rookies with proven help, Tyler Guyton leading the way.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the 1st overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. slipping to No. 63 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick102 Rnd4 Devin Moore
Devin Moore is a better player than Round 4, Pick 2 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jude Bowry
They paid sticker price for Jude Bowry in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117 Rnd4 Genesis Smith
Circle this one: Genesis Smith at the 117th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick134 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at pick 134 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick175 Rnd5 Eric Rivers
Value with a capital V on Eric Rivers in slot 175, a genuine coup. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Zane Durant
Zane Durant in pick No. 182 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in the Round 6 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick208 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black at No. 208 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jalon Daniels
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalon Daniels. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
