Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureA+
The Raiders drew a line under the quarterback search with Mendoza: A-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Raiders committed. Fernando Mendoza is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A-.

Every board in the league had Coogan lower, and that gap is the story. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

That Stroman pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

In the end it comes back to Fernando Mendoza, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick 5 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Elijah Sarratt. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
They let Deontae Lawson come to them and pounced at No. 75. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick91 Rnd3 Carter Smith
A tidy little value on Carter Smith in the 91st pick, a step better than break-even. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge in slot 137 is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick148 Rnd5 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jalen Stroman
Jalen Stroman in pick No. 182 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick219 Rnd7 Pat Coogan
Value said wait; Pat Coogan in the 219th overall pick says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
