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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: JD Bertrand, slot 220, roughly 25 picks past where he belonged. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The cost of the Sweat reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
In slot 13 they get a sticky cover corner. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat at the Round 2 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
They took Cooper Beebe at par in pick No. 77, which is nothing to complain about. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125 Rnd4 Justin Eboigbe
By-the-book stuff, Justin Eboigbe at No. 125 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick150 Rnd5 MarShawn Lloyd
MarShawn Lloyd in Round 5, Pick 14 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick203 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at pick 203 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick204 Rnd6 Myles Jones
Myles Jones in the 204th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick220 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
Circle this one: JD Bertrand at the 220th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick234 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
No edge and no loss on Joshua Cephus in the 234th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Xavier Thomas
They paid up for Xavier Thomas at the 246th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
