Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall C-
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureC+
The Raiders got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Garrett Dellinger in No. 213, a good 71 spots before the room expected him.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Edwards value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Jonah Savaiinaea
In Round 1, Pick 17 they get a blindside protector, though the board says they badly overpaid. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick28 Rnd1 Aireontae Ersery
In No. 28 they get a building block for the line, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They took Jihaad Campbell at par in slot 37, which is nothing to complain about. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick49 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Watts went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick68 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Value with a capital V on TreVeyon Henderson in the Round 3 slot, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick81 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jayden Higgins at pick No. 81 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Cam Skattebo at slot 108. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick143 Rnd5 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton in Round 5, Pick 5 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick180 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A tidy little value on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick No. 180, a step better than break-even. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick213 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at pick 213 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick215 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
They robbed the room for Donovan Edwards here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick216 Rnd6 Jordan Hancock
They read the board right and Jordan Hancock was the payoff at the 216th pick. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick217 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Ty Hamilton this early at the Round 7 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
