Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Will Howard pick is the one that will follow the Raiders into the fall. They took him 64 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Landing Marks that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. That cornerback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tetairoa McMillan. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Will Howard
Will Howard at pick No. 37 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
A premium they did not need to pay, Jared Ivey a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick108 Rnd4 Miles Frazier
A conviction pick on Miles Frazier at the 108th pick that the board grades a round light. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
Jonas Sanker slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick180 Rnd6 Luke Elzinga
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Luke Elzinga well ahead of where he belonged. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
No drama and no debate, Jordan Hancock went about where he belonged in Round 6, Pick 37. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick215 Rnd6 Woody Marks
They robbed the room for Woody Marks here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222 Rnd7 Brady Cook
Value said wait; Brady Cook in No. 222 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
