Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB+ FutureD
Daniels is the Raiders' new face under center. Grade: B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Raiders committed. Jayden Daniels is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

On value alone, Ali makes the weekend a net positive. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Laumea pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In No. 9 they get a franchise quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Ennis Rakestraw Jr.
A tidy little value on Ennis Rakestraw Jr. in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
A straight-up fair deal on Braden Fiske at the 77th pick, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea in Round 4, Pick 13 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick147 Rnd5 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick190 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Good price on Curtis Jacobs in slot 190, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick221 Rnd7 Christian Jones
Christian Jones in pick No. 221 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
A running back of that caliber at the 231st overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
