Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Mendoza in the fold, and a B- for the Raiders.

The search is over. The Raiders handed the keys to Fernando Mendoza, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. The Nwankpa value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

The Iheanachor pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the 1st overall pick they get the face of the franchise at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in No. 36 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Max Iheanachor
A reach on Max Iheanachor in pick 67; the board had better options right there. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez in slot 102 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick117 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
They paid sticker price for Keylan Rutledge in pick No. 117, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun at the 134th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick174 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Xavier Nwankpa in Round 5, Pick 36. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick180 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss at the Round 6 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick183 Rnd6 Thaddeus Dixon
They took Thaddeus Dixon at par in Round 6, Pick 4, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd7 London Humphreys
A reach for London Humphreys in pick 219; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
