Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueA NeedB TradesC+ FutureA
The Raiders left with their quarterback, and a B+ to match.

Call it larceny. Colston Loveland sat on the board until the 216th pick, and the Raiders did not need to be asked twice.

Shedeur Sanders is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They are betting Greene III proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The cornerback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In No. 12 they get a franchise quarterback, outstanding value to boot.
Pick37 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the Round 2 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick68 Rnd3 Derrick Harmon
Steal is underselling it; Derrick Harmon at No. 68 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick73 Rnd3 Mike Green
They will replay Mike Green at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick106 Rnd4 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III at slot 106 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 142nd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick178 Rnd6 Barrett Carter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Barrett Carter in the 178th overall pick, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick212 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
The board fumbled Cam Skattebo all the way to Round 6, Pick 37, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick216 Rnd6 Colston Loveland
They barely believed it either: Colston Loveland still on the board at pick 216. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Danny Stutsman
You do not let a linebacker like Danny Stutsman reach pick No. 222 and blink. They did not. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
