Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders drew a line under the quarterback search with Mendoza: B-.

The search is over. The Raiders handed the keys to Fernando Mendoza, and the whole operation now runs on his development. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

That is a wide receiver worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Elliott pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick 1 they get the arm they will build around at fair value.
Pick36 Rnd2 Blake Miller
The board had cheaper options than Blake Miller at the 36th overall pick, and it noticed. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Fair-plus on Keionte Scott, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick108 Rnd4 Keyshaun Elliott
A reach on Keyshaun Elliott in the 108th pick; the board had better options right there. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick117 Rnd4 Skyler Bell
Taking Skyler Bell in slot 117 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
A quiet steal in Round 4, Pick 34: Bishop Fitzgerald for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick170 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at the Round 5 slot is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Caleb Douglas
Caleb Douglas is a better player than pick No. 175 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick185 Rnd6 Dae'Quan Wright
No edge and no loss on Dae'Quan Wright in pick 185; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick208 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
A slide stopped in slot 208, with Ephesians Prysock worth more than the price. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick219 Rnd7 Landon Robinson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Landon Robinson. The roster fit checks out.
Pick257 Rnd7 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in the Round 7 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
