Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Raiders: B.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Ty'Ron Hopper at No. 116, a reach of 37 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

They banked enough surplus on Bishop to cover a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The trade work was a quiet net positive. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In pick No. 18 they get a wrecking ball inside at fair value.
Pick44 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Good price on Tyler Guyton in the 44th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jonathon Brooks
Jonathon Brooks at pick 49 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It fills a real need, too.
Pick77 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice in Round 3, Pick 13 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in the 113th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Ty'Ron Hopper
They reached a country mile for Ty'Ron Hopper at slot 116, and the board is aghast. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick147 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
They will replay Cole Bishop at slot 147 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick190 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All at the 190th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jalen Green
They let Jalen Green come to them and pounced at pick 221. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Maurice Smith
They went early on Maurice Smith in No. 231, and the value did not follow. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
