Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureD
Quarterback settled, Penix Jr. in the fold, and a B- for the Raiders.

The Raiders spent the pick that matters most on Michael Penix Jr., and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Getting Hadden where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. A modest surplus at the table, banked quietly.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Michael Penix Jr. at the 9th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick44 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
They paid sticker price for Byron Murphy II in No. 44, and that is fine. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Roman Wilson
No drama and no debate, Roman Wilson went about where he belonged in the 77th pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dillon Johnson
Dillon Johnson in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick150 Rnd5 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at slot 150 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick190 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick No. 190 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jeremy Flax
Jeremy Flax in Round 7, Pick 14 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
