Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in the 88th pick: the Raiders steal Scott and grade out a B.

The board owed the Raiders one, and it paid up: Justin Scott, the No. 21 name on the board, sitting there at pick No. 88 like a gift left on the doorstep.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They left with cornerback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Trevor Goosby
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick54 Rnd2 Charlie Becker
Charlie Becker at pick 54 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick88 Rnd3 Justin Scott
Justin Scott at No. 88 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick124 Rnd4 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu at Round 4, Pick 23 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick160 Rnd5 Jayden Jackson
Jayden Jackson is a better player than the 160th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick203 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Taking Jermaine Mathews Jr. in slot 203 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
