Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
A passer of the future in Simpson, and a B-, for the Raiders.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Raiders spent their marquee pick on Ty Simpson, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The Scott pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Makai Lemon
In the 12th pick they get a true top target. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick20 Rnd1 Ty Simpson
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Anthony Hill Jr. at No. 36, value and slot in agreement. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick67 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Steal is underselling it; Lee Hunter at slot 67 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick92 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
A cornerback of that caliber at the 92nd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102 Rnd4 Brian Parker II
A conviction pick on Brian Parker II at pick 102 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at the Round 4 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick134 Rnd4 Will Lee III
They read the board right and Will Lee III was the payoff at pick No. 134. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick175 Rnd5 Caleb Douglas
Caleb Douglas slipping to slot 175 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
The board had Ar'maj Reed-Adams higher than pick No. 185, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick208 Rnd6 VJ Payne
Fair-plus on VJ Payne, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick219 Rnd7 J'Mari Taylor
The board fumbled J'Mari Taylor all the way to Round 7, Pick 3, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
