Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Raiders let Howard fall into their laps, and walked away with a D.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Will Howard, slot 182, roughly 74 picks past where he belonged. A weekend that fought the value and lost, hence the D.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. For all the activity, cornerback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and cornerback is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 James Pearce Jr.
In pick 6 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick33 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
Steal is underselling it; Ashton Jeanty at No. 33 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
Tetairoa McMillan in the 37th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
Nice patience on Jaxson Dart, who had no business lasting to the 67th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: TreVeyon Henderson for less than the market said. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick73 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins slipping to pick No. 73 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick107 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 4, Pick 6 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick144 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
They paid sticker price for Oronde Gadsden II in slot 144, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182 Rnd6 Will Howard
They will replay Will Howard at slot 182 for years; that is how good the value is. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
You do not let a wide receiver like Dont'e Thornton Jr. reach pick No. 214 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
