Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureB-
Trost should have been long gone. The Raiders pounced, and earned a B+.

The Raiders ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

The Trost pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
Rueben Bain Jr. in the 2nd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick16 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick No. 16 they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Dillon Thieneman worth more than the price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick67 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the 67th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
They robbed the room for Deontae Lawson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalon Kilgore in Round 4, Pick 17. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Joe Royer
A reasonable price with a little left over, Joe Royer in pick 134. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick175 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Drew Allar at the 175th overall pick is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick185 Rnd6 Febechi Nwaiwu
Febechi Nwaiwu in pick No. 185 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick208 Rnd6 Keagen Trost
Circle this one: Keagen Trost at Round 6, Pick 27 is a fall that decides a draft. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd7 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor in slot 219 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
