FutureC
The Raiders lost the trade table, and the D- tells the story. The Eric Gentry selection is the head-turner. The Raiders reached 112 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered. The board pushed back all weekend, and the D- is the result.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Allar.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick23
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
They took Mansoor Delane at par in the Round 1 slot, which is nothing to complain about. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick35
Rnd2
Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at pick No. 35 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick38
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
A premium they did not need to pay, Olaivavega Ioane a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66
Rnd3
Austin Siereveld
Austin Siereveld in pick 66 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87
Rnd3
Sam Leavitt
Sam Leavitt in the 87th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick104
Rnd4
Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at No. 104 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick111
Rnd4
Zachariah Branch
A conviction pick on Zachariah Branch at the Round 4 slot that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick134
Rnd4
Logan Jones
The board had cheaper options than Logan Jones at Round 4, Pick 34, and it noticed. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173
Rnd5
Lander Barton
A real head-scratcher, Lander Barton in pick 173 is miles ahead of his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick181
Rnd6
Drew Allar
They will replay Drew Allar at the 181st overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick183
Rnd6
Isaiah Jatta
A big swing on Isaiah Jatta at pick No. 183, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185
Rnd6
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson in slot 185 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick219
Rnd7
Malik Hartford
Malik Hartford in the 219th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick223
Rnd7
Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen at Round 7, Pick 8 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick237
Rnd7
Eric Gentry
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Eric Gentry. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
