Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Raiders won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

Nobody else had Roman Hemby anywhere near pick No. 219. The Raiders did, by 51 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

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

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Deontae Lawson and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick59 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
Fair-plus on Deontae Lawson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick67 Rnd3 Brian Parker II
Brian Parker II at the 67th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
D'Angelo Ponds in slot 102 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick117 Rnd4 Trinidad Chambliss
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trinidad Chambliss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick125 Rnd4 Max Iheanachor
They jumped the gun on Max Iheanachor, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jakobe Thomas in pick No. 134. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick169 Rnd5 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in pick 169 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick174 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
No edge and no loss on Eric McAlister in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson in slot 180 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jordan White
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jordan White in the 183rd overall pick, miles early. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick219 Rnd7 Roman Hemby
Roman Hemby at Round 7, Pick 3 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
