FutureB-
The Raiders cashed the board's mistake on Sabb: B-. The rest of the league will want that one back. Keon Sabb tumbling to the Raiders in pick 112 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.
They are betting Rodriguez proves the room right and everyone else wrong. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.
The Rodriguez pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and tight end. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker, outstanding value to boot. More want than need.
Pick36
Rnd2
Caleb Lomu
Caleb Lomu in No. 36 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick67
Rnd3
Germie Bernard
Fair-plus on Germie Bernard, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick89
Rnd3
LaNorris Sellers
LaNorris Sellers at the 89th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick112
Rnd4
Keon Sabb
You do not let a safety like Keon Sabb reach the 112th pick and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick115
Rnd4
Domani Jackson
No edge and no loss on Domani Jackson in pick No. 115; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick131
Rnd4
Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at slot 131 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134
Rnd4
Jacob Rodriguez
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jacob Rodriguez at linebacker with edge rusher and tight end open.
Pick168
Rnd5
Isaac Smith
They took Isaac Smith at par in the 168th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick173
Rnd5
Aaron Anderson
A straight-up fair deal on Aaron Anderson at pick 173, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183
Rnd6
Lee Hunter
They reached into another round for Lee Hunter, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185
Rnd6
Gunner Stockton
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Gunner Stockton at the 185th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick205
Rnd6
Quintrevion Wisner
No drama and no debate, Quintrevion Wisner went about where he belonged in pick No. 205. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220
Rnd7
DJ Harvey
DJ Harvey at slot 220 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick241
Rnd7
Malik Hartford
Malik Hartford at Round 7, Pick 26 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
