Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Raiders drew a line under the quarterback search with Ward: D-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Jasheen Davis in No. 103, a good 37 spots before the room expected him.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Everything downstream of Cam Ward depends on Cam Ward, and the building knows it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through cornerback.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick 7 they get a franchise quarterback, though the board says they badly overpaid. A real need, handled.
Pick19 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
Abdul Carter at the 19th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick29 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In the 29th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at slot 39 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick61 Rnd2 Elic Ayomanor
The board had cheaper options than Elic Ayomanor at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71 Rnd3 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at No. 71 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jasheen Davis
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jasheen Davis. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
They paid up for Nick Emmanwori at Round 4, Pick 29 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick135 Rnd5 Tonka Hemingway
A conviction pick on Tonka Hemingway at the Round 5 slot that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick167 Rnd6 Jayden Higgins
No drama and no debate, Jayden Higgins went about where he belonged in pick No. 167. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick199 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They reached a country mile for Garrett Dellinger at the 199th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
