Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall
A-
ValueB
NeedB-
TradesA+
FutureA+
Grand theft in Round 4, Pick 6: the Raiders steal Golday and grade out a A-. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Raiders watched Jake Golday slide 48 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.
Every board in the league had Aguilar lower, and that gap is the story. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.
The Raiders clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 8 of 8 of the wish list covered.
Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Lee Hunter and all.
Pick Analysis
Pick71
Rnd3
Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter at No. 71 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick78
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at the Round 3 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick106
Rnd4
Jake Golday
You do not let an edge rusher like Jake Golday reach pick 106 and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick115
Rnd4
Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at the 115th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117
Rnd4
Zakee Wheatley
Zakee Wheatley in slot 117 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick134
Rnd4
Eli Raridon
Eli Raridon in Round 4, Pick 34 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick154
Rnd5
Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris at pick No. 154 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165
Rnd5
Demond Claiborne
Demond Claiborne at the 165th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick174
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in the 174th pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick175
Rnd5
Kaleb Elarms-Orr
They took Kaleb Elarms-Orr at par in slot 175, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick185
Rnd6
Matt Gulbin
A clean, defensible pick in pick 185 with a little surplus value in Matt Gulbin. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick208
Rnd6
Jimmy Rolder
No edge and no loss on Jimmy Rolder in the 208th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick219
Rnd7
Andre Fuller
They paid sticker price for Andre Fuller in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232
Rnd7
Xavier Nwankpa
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Nwankpa went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick238
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at No. 238 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick246
Rnd7
De'Zhaun Stribling
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on De'Zhaun Stribling. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick249
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
By-the-book stuff, Nolan Rucci at pick No. 249 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick250
Rnd7
Joey Aguilar
A real head-scratcher, Joey Aguilar in slot 250 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251
Rnd7
Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at the 251st pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick252
Rnd7
Logan Taylor
A straight-up fair deal on Logan Taylor at Round 7, Pick 36, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick253
Rnd7
Anez Cooper
This one needs a full-page explanation: Anez Cooper in No. 253, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick256
Rnd7
John Michael Gyllenborg
Quietly one of the better values of the day, John Michael Gyllenborg at pick 256. The roster fit checks out.
