Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Raiders and Perkins Jr.: B-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Harold Perkins Jr. had no business being available in pick No. 212, and the Raiders did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

Reaching for Lacy left real value on the table behind him. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

The Starks pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, cornerback and other spots.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get an every-down engine for the run game at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jalen Milroe
They jumped the gun on Jalen Milroe, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick69 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Malachi Moore in pick 69, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick73 Rnd3 Malaki Starks
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher, cornerback and other spots to take Malaki Starks, a safety that was not the priority.
Pick105 Rnd4 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild in the 105th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick141 Rnd5 Jalen Catalon
Value with a capital V on Jalen Catalon in No. 141, a genuine coup. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kyren Lacy
They reached into another round for Kyren Lacy, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick212 Rnd6 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at Round 6, Pick 37 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick214 Rnd6 Shilo Sanders
Shilo Sanders at the 214th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Jared Wilson at slot 224 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
