Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
The Raiders robbed the room for Taylor-Demerson. Final grade: A-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson had no business being available in the Round 4 slot, and the Raiders did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Brian Thomas Jr. and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 23rd pick they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at the 44th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
The board fumbled Jordan Morgan all the way to the Round 2 slot, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at Round 3, Pick 17 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick83 Rnd3 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy in No. 83 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick113 Rnd4 Dadrion Taylor-Demerson
They barely believed it either: Dadrion Taylor-Demerson still on the board at slot 113. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick147 Rnd5 Tommy Eichenberg
Good price on Tommy Eichenberg in pick No. 147, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick169 Rnd5 Brennan Jackson
Nice patience on Brennan Jackson, who had no business lasting to pick 169. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jaheim Bell
They let Jaheim Bell come to them and pounced at the 177th overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick210 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Circle this one: Johnny Dixon at pick No. 210 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick221 Rnd7 Nathan Thomas
Nathan Thomas is a better player than No. 221 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick225 Rnd7 Austin Reed
They took Austin Reed at par in the 225th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227 Rnd7 Rasheen Ali
Rasheen Ali in Round 7, Pick 7 is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
