Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC FutureB-
The Raiders robbed the room for Shough. Final grade: C+.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Tyler Shough tumbling to the Raiders in Round 6, Pick 39 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C+ in the wash.

The Booker pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Cornerback was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Tyler Booker
In pick No. 12 they get a cornerstone up front, a steep price for the projection. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jalon Walker in No. 37. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick68 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Alfred Collins at Round 3, Pick 4 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76 Rnd3 Savion Williams
The board had cheaper options than Savion Williams at slot 76, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick108 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
They did well to land Malachi Moore in the 108th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jordan James
Jordan James at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick180 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant in pick 180 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick213 Rnd6 Ollie Gordon II
Circle this one: Ollie Gordon II at the 213th pick is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick215 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
You do not let a quarterback like Tyler Shough reach pick 215 and blink. They did not. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick222 Rnd7 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in No. 222 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
