Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Raiders: B.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Raiders spent pick No. 191 on Adepoju Adebawore, a name most had 49 spots down the list. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

That Washington pick is the receipt they will wave around later. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Will Echoles
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a disruptive interior force, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 David Stone
They will replay David Stone at pick No. 44 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick58 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in No. 58 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick79 Rnd3 Greg Johnson
Fair-plus on Greg Johnson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick86 Rnd3 Reed Harris
Reed Harris in the 86th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick88 Rnd3 Nyck Harbor
Nyck Harbor in pick 88 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick120 Rnd4 Evan Tengesdahl
They robbed the room for Evan Tengesdahl here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jackson Bennee
A tidy bit of business in the Round 4 slot, where Jackson Bennee graded well above the range. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick152 Rnd5 Antwan Raymond
Antwan Raymond slid further than he should have, and No. 152 is lovely value for the running back. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick185 Rnd6 John Curry
Taking John Curry in Round 6, Pick 6 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick191 Rnd6 Adepoju Adebawore
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Adepoju Adebawore. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick248 Rnd7 Sammy Omosigho
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sammy Omosigho. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
