Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA
The phones sank the Raiders this weekend: C+.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Raiders took Taylen Green at the Round 4 slot, roughly 60 spots before his name belonged. It washes out to a C+, no better and no worse.

That Orange pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. That running back hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

If Monroe Freeling and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In No. 12 they get a long-term starter on the line, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick24 Rnd1 Kayden McDonald
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a disruptive interior force at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They let Dillon Thieneman come to them and pounced at the 36th overall pick. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick67 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Nothing to complain about; Keionte Scott went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick102 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Somehow Zachariah Branch was still sitting there in pick No. 102, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick107 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones at the 107th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
You do not let a cornerback like Davison Igbinosun reach the 112th pick and blink. They did not. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick117 Rnd4 Domonique Orange
Steal is underselling it; Domonique Orange at the 117th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick134 Rnd4 Taylen Green
A real head-scratcher, Taylen Green in slot 134 is miles ahead of his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick175 Rnd5 Nyjalik Kelly
They reached a country mile for Nyjalik Kelly at pick No. 175, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick185 Rnd6 Marlin Klein
Marlin Klein at the Round 6 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick208 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 27 is the definition of value, full stop. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jeremiah Wright
Jeremiah Wright in pick 219 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
