Start where it matters. The Raiders took J.J. McCarthy to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. That Arnold pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

If Van Pran pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
