Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Raiders for Kiser: A-.

The Raiders spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jack Kiser, the No. 176 name on the board, in Round 6, Pick 39. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Hamilton pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

The Jordan Addison deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Walter Nolen and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 24th pick they get a disruptive interior force. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick68 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at pick 68 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick97 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They let Ozzy Trapilo come to them and pounced at Round 3, Pick 33. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick108 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
They jumped the gun on Kyle McCord, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick143 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Billy Bowman Jr. in the 143rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick180 Rnd6 Dorian Strong
Nice patience on Dorian Strong, who had no business lasting to No. 180. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
Taking Jason Marshall Jr. in slot 213 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
Circle this one: Jack Kiser at the 215th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick222 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton at Round 7, Pick 6 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
