Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders bet the future on Penix Jr.. The board says B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Raiders committed. Michael Penix Jr. is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They are betting Jones proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In pick 13 they get a franchise quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
A straight-up fair deal on Byron Murphy II at the 44th pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick77 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They took Christian Haynes at par in pick No. 77, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jarrian Jones
A reach for Jarrian Jones in Round 4, Pick 12; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Edefuan Ulofoshio
They paid sticker price for Edefuan Ulofoshio in slot 150, and that is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick190 Rnd6 AJ Barner
AJ Barner at the Round 6 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick234 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
A reasonable price with a little left over, Joshua Cephus in the 234th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
