Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Raiders this weekend: A-.

The Raiders clearly saw something nobody else did in Trinidad Chambliss, taking him 39 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Johnson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Spending an early pick on linebacker with edge rusher open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick 12 they get a three-down second-level presence. Need was not the driver here.
Pick36 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went linebacker with Sonny Styles while clear needs at edge rusher sat open.
Pick67 Rnd3 Brian Parker II
A straight-up fair deal on Brian Parker II at the Round 3 slot, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick83 Rnd3 Trinidad Chambliss
This one needs a full-page explanation: Trinidad Chambliss in Round 3, Pick 19, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick115 Rnd4 Blake Miller
A conviction pick on Blake Miller at No. 115 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick117 Rnd4 Emmett Johnson
The board fumbled Emmett Johnson all the way to slot 117, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
They did well to land Jakobe Thomas in the 135th pick, just ahead of his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick157 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Domani Jackson at the 157th overall pick is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick176 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson at pick No. 176 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick181 Rnd6 Rayshaun Benny
Rayshaun Benny in No. 181 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick184 Rnd6 Brenen Thompson
You do not let a wide receiver like Brenen Thompson reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick219 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
A quiet steal in pick 219: Luke Altmyer for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jack Velling
Jack Velling at Round 7, Pick 18 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick235 Rnd7 Jalen Catalon
No edge and no loss on Jalen Catalon in slot 235; it is a wash and a sensible one. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jordan Hall
They paid sticker price for Jordan Hall in the 252nd overall pick, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
