Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A passer of the future in Mendoza, and a B-, for the Raiders.

Start where it matters. The Raiders took Fernando Mendoza to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

Reaching for Black left real value on the table behind him. That Ramsey pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Job largely done: cornerback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Omar Cooper Jr. at No. 36, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick67 Rnd3 Christen Miller
Value with a capital V on Christen Miller in the 67th pick, a genuine coup. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick108 Rnd4 Kamari Ramsey
The board fumbled Kamari Ramsey all the way to slot 108, and they scooped it up. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore slid further than he should have, and pick 117 is lovely value for the cornerback. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
They jumped the gun on Dametrious Crownover, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick175 Rnd5 Febechi Nwaiwu
Febechi Nwaiwu at Round 5, Pick 35 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
Kaelon Black at the 185th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick208 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in the 208th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jimmy Rolder
They paid up for Jimmy Rolder at pick No. 219 when waiting would have done the job. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick246 Rnd7 TJ Hall
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TJ Hall in slot 246. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
