Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureC-
The Raiders got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the D-.

The Raiders clearly saw something nobody else did in Zion Young, taking him 31 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Allen pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with running back and tight end still on the board. The running back hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

That is a quarterback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The bill for those future picks comes due whether the class hits or not.

Bottom line, they will be counting on several picks to beat their grades.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
In pick No. 14 they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick26 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 26 they get a green-dot type in the middle at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick36 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald at Round 2, Pick 4 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick49 Rnd2 CJ Allen
A want over a need in No. 49: CJ Allen adds a linebacker while running back and tight end keeps waiting.
Pick60 Rnd2 Zion Young
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zion Young in the 60th pick, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick75 Rnd3 A.J. Harris
A.J. Harris in pick 75 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick93 Rnd3 Sam Leavitt
Value with a capital V on Sam Leavitt in pick 93, a genuine coup. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick110 Rnd4 Chris Johnson
They liked Chris Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in slot 110. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
By-the-book stuff, Zachariah Branch at the 112th pick squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick134 Rnd4 Logan Jones
They paid up for Logan Jones at No. 134 when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick173 Rnd5 Duce Robinson
They took Duce Robinson at par in Round 5, Pick 33, which is nothing to complain about. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick183 Rnd6 Drew Allar
They will replay Drew Allar at the 183rd overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. It fills a real need, too.
Pick185 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on DJ Campbell. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick186 Rnd6 Isaiah Jatta
They paid a round early for Isaiah Jatta in pick No. 186, more than the board wanted. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
