Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB+
Grand theft in pick 45: the Raiders steal Emmanwori and grade out a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Nick Emmanwori, the Round 2 slot, roughly 25 picks past where he belonged.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant in pick No. 37 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick45 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
You do not let a safety like Nick Emmanwori reach slot 45 and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick68 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They read the board right and TreVeyon Henderson was the payoff at the 68th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick108 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Zy Alexander at No. 108. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Kyle McCord
They barely believed it either: Kyle McCord still on the board at the Round 5 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick180 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing DJ Giddens in pick 180. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick213 Rnd6 Woody Marks
The board fumbled Woody Marks all the way to the 213th overall pick, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215 Rnd6 Caleb Rogers
The board had Caleb Rogers higher than pick 215, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick222 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw slipping to Round 7, Pick 6 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
