Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureB+
The Raiders bet the future on Mendoza. The board says B+.

The Raiders spent the pick that matters most on Fernando Mendoza, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The Coogan reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, cornerback and other spots went begging.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Smith.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick No. 2 they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick25 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the 25th pick they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick37 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Sonny Styles while clear needs at edge rusher, cornerback and other spots sat open.
Pick41 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick110 Rnd4 Blake Miller
This one needs a full-page explanation: Blake Miller in pick 110, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
The board had cheaper options than Keylan Rutledge at the 134th overall pick, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick174 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
No drama and no debate, Aaron Graves went about where he belonged in slot 174. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick185 Rnd6 Isaac Smith
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 4, with Isaac Smith worth more than the price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
They paid sticker price for Isaiah Nwokobia in No. 219, and that is fine. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick231 Rnd7 Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan in the 231st pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
