Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Raiders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

Whoever sat across the table from the Raiders should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. If Williams pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Landing Simpson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 JC Latham
In slot 19 they get a blindside protector. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
No drama and no debate, Jeremiah Trotter Jr. went about where he belonged in the 55th pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper Beebe. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A quiet steal in pick 112: Dominick Puni for less than the market said. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 James Williams
The board had cheaper options than James Williams at the 118th overall pick, and it noticed. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick150 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A straight-up fair deal on Braelon Allen at No. 150, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson in Round 5, Pick 22 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick190 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick No. 190 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jaden Crumedy
A slide stopped in slot 234, with Jaden Crumedy worth more than the price. Hard to map this one onto the depth chart at all.
