Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Raiders won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Zach Calzada; the Raiders did not wait, grabbing him 159 spots ahead at pick 234.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Puni falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Justin Fields gives the group a proven body among the projects.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In No. 18 they get a press-man option on the boundary. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick46 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
They paid up for T'Vondre Sweat at slot 46 when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe at pick No. 77 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Dominick Puni at Round 4, Pick 12. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick115 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
They reached into another round for Ben Sinnott, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick117 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
They jumped the gun on Cedric Gray, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jaylen Wright
Jaylen Wright in pick No. 150 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick190 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
No drama and no debate, De'Corian Clark went about where he belonged in slot 190. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick234 Rnd7 Zach Calzada
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zach Calzada well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
