Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueA NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders let Milum fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Wyatt Milum at the Round 6 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

The tight end spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
In pick 6 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
The board fumbled Ashton Jeanty all the way to the 37th overall pick, and they scooped it up. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Cam Ward
They barely believed it either: Cam Ward still on the board at the Round 3 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick107 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
Steal is underselling it; Elic Ayomanor at slot 107 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick144 Rnd5 Armand Membou
Armand Membou at Round 5, Pick 5 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jahdae Barron
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 182 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Wyatt Milum
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Wyatt Milum in pick No. 214, plain and simple. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick218 Rnd6 T.J. Sanders
T.J. Sanders in the 218th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick224 Rnd7 Demetrius Knight Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Demetrius Knight Jr. reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
