Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureA+
The Raiders robbed the room for Rodriguez. Final grade: B+.

When a board-topper like Jacob Rodriguez slides to pick 185, you do not overthink it, and the Raiders did not. No fireworks, but a solid B+.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They will need Romaine to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The Azeez Al-Shaair deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jordyn Tyson
Jordyn Tyson at pick No. 13 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jayden Maiava
Jayden Maiava at the 71st overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick106 Rnd4 Drew Shelton
Value with a capital V on Drew Shelton in pick 106, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick115 Rnd4 Austin Romaine
A big swing on Austin Romaine at slot 115, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick135 Rnd4 Drew Allar
The board had cheaper options than Drew Allar at the 135th pick, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick173 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
They let Davison Igbinosun come to them and pounced at Round 5, Pick 33. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick176 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
They paid sticker price for Jermaine Mathews Jr. in No. 176, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Jacob Rodriguez
Taking Jacob Rodriguez in the Round 6 slot is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick221 Rnd7 Roderick Kearney
They paid up for Roderick Kearney at No. 221 when waiting would have done the job. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
