Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Moore headlines a B weekend for the Raiders.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Kayden McDonald tumbling to the Raiders in the 220th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Whatever Dante Moore becomes, the front office has tied its fortunes to the answer. For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but running back.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In the 5th overall pick they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Spencer Fano
Spencer Fano at slot 36 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 David Bailey
Somehow David Bailey was still sitting there in pick 67, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jermod McCoy
They barely believed it either: Jermod McCoy still on the board at Round 4, Pick 5. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jake Slaughter
Steal is underselling it; Jake Slaughter at pick No. 112 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick134 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in slot 134 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick173 Rnd5 Jordyn Tyson
They robbed the room for Jordyn Tyson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183 Rnd6 Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane in No. 183 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick185 Rnd6 Fernando Mendoza
A quarterback of that caliber at the Round 6 slot is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick220 Rnd7 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at the 220th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A need, and now a little less of one.
