Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders won the night they stopped Thompkins from sliding. Grade: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Devan Thompkins got past him. The Raiders do not have to explain a thing at No. 123. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They are betting Pieper proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Kade Pieper
In slot 20 they get a building block for the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
No edge and no loss on Kenyatta Jackson Jr. in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick86 Rnd3 Ryan Wingo
The board fumbled Ryan Wingo all the way to the 86th overall pick, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Devan Thompkins
Taking Devan Thompkins in the 123rd pick is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick157 Rnd5 Terrance Carter Jr.
They robbed the room for Terrance Carter Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick203 Rnd6 John Curry
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, John Curry in pick No. 203, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
