Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureA
The Raiders did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

There is reaching, and then there is Jalen Milroe at the Round 3 slot. The Raiders jumped the board by 26 and dared it to prove them wrong.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Reed at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In pick No. 14 they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
No drama and no debate, Jihaad Campbell went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 5. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Value said wait; Jalen Milroe in pick 68 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick80 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams slid further than he should have, and the 80th pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick108 Rnd4 Savion Williams
Savion Williams at slot 108 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick143 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
They paid up for O'Donnell Fortune at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jason Marshall Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jason Marshall Jr. this early at slot 180. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jaydon Blue
Jaydon Blue slipping to Round 6, Pick 13 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick213 Rnd6 Jaylen Reed
A safety of that caliber at the 213th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick215 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in the 215th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick222 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
They will replay Donovan Edwards at No. 222 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick232 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Good price on Carson Vinson in pick No. 232, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
