Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

Start where it matters. The Raiders took Shedeur Sanders to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Henderson. Every board in the league had Fidone II lower, and that gap is the story.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In No. 6 they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
A tidy bit of business in the 37th overall pick, where Emeka Egbuka graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at the 68th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Somehow TreVeyon Henderson was still sitting there in Round 4, Pick 6, and they pounced on premier running back value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker slipping to slot 143 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick180 Rnd6 Ajani Cornelius
Good price on Ajani Cornelius in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jay Higgins
Nice patience on Jay Higgins, who had no business lasting to pick 213. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick215 Rnd6 Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson
Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson is a better player than pick No. 215 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick222 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
A wild overpay on Thomas Fidone II in No. 222, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
