Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Raiders won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Diego Pavia; the Raiders did not wait, grabbing him 59 spots ahead at No. 183. Little to argue with here, and the A says so.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Igbinosun falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Rueben Bain Jr.
In pick 2 they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A clean, defensible pick in Round 2, Pick 4 with a little surplus value in Dillon Thieneman. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick44 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. in pick No. 44 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick67 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dontay Corleone. It fills a real need, too.
Pick102 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton at the 102nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103 Rnd4 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis at slot 103 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick117 Rnd4 Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick134 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 34, where Davison Igbinosun graded well above the range. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson at slot 174 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Febechi Nwaiwu
Febechi Nwaiwu is a better player than pick No. 180 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick183 Rnd6 Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia in the 183rd pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd7 Sam Roush
Sam Roush at pick 219 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A need, and now a little less of one.
