Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Raiders worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+.

The Kaleb Jackson pick is the one that will follow the Raiders into the fall. They took him 80 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The Beck pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
They jumped the gun on Chris Brazzell II, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick40 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
Value with a capital V on Nyck Harbor in Round 2, Pick 8, a genuine coup. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at pick 58 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick72 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A reach for Michael Taaffe in the 72nd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick74 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
Whit Weeks at the Round 3 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick108 Rnd4 Carson Beck
Carson Beck in No. 108 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kage Casey
A big swing on Kage Casey at the 135th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick165 Rnd5 Patrick Payton
Patrick Payton at the Round 5 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
They left a pile of value on the table to take DJ Campbell this early at the 186th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kaleb Jackson
Kaleb Jackson at Round 7, Pick 5 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick247 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris in slot 247 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
