Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Raiders.

The Raiders went off the board in a big way for Emani Bailey, 33 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In the 13th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
No drama and no debate, Roman Wilson went about where he belonged in slot 44. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick77 Rnd3 Max Melton
Max Melton in the Round 3 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
Value said wait; Jarrian Jones in pick 112 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick148 Rnd5 Walter Rouse
They jumped the gun on Walter Rouse, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick208 Rnd6 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at Round 6, Pick 33 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick223 Rnd7 Eric Watts
Eric Watts in the 223rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick229 Rnd7 Emani Bailey
A real head-scratcher, Emani Bailey in pick 229 is miles ahead of his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
