Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Raiders lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

The Diego Pavia selection is the head-turner. The Raiders reached 91 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

So much rides on Kenyon Sadiq that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In pick No. 31 they get a seam-stretching tight end. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Value said wait; Gennings Dunker in No. 40 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick72 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Taaffe at Round 3, Pick 8, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick94 Rnd3 Arvell Reese
Arvell Reese at the 94th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick126 Rnd4 Kage Casey
They reached a country mile for Kage Casey at slot 126, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick130 Rnd4 Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at the 130th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick135 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in pick 135 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick221 Rnd7 Austin Siereveld
They reached into another round for Austin Siereveld, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
