Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Raiders bet big and early on Garrett Nussmeier, 38 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Allen. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In No. 1 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick36 Rnd2 Garrett Nussmeier
Garrett Nussmeier at the 36th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick67 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
Good price on Caleb Tiernan in pick 67, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez in slot 102 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick117 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
Bishop Fitzgerald at Round 4, Pick 17 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick134 Rnd4 Cyrus Allen
They read the board right and Cyrus Allen was the payoff at the 134th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock in pick No. 174 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
They did well to land DJ Campbell in the Round 6 slot, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick183 Rnd6 Jaydn Ott
Jaydn Ott at pick 183 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jaren Kanak
They went early on Jaren Kanak in No. 219, and the value did not follow. The roster fit checks out.
