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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Cam Skattebo, Round 6, Pick 41, roughly 102 picks past where he belonged. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

Reaching for Howard left real value on the table behind him. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In pick 8 they get a potential shutdown corner. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Fair-plus on Jihaad Campbell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson at No. 69 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick70 Rnd3 Will Howard
Will Howard at the 70th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Tory Horton
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 106 with a little surplus value in Tory Horton. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick146 Rnd5 Connor Colby
A real head-scratcher, Connor Colby in Round 5, Pick 9 is miles ahead of his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick148 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
They paid up for DeMonte Capehart at the Round 5 slot when waiting would have done the job. The roster fit checks out.
Pick183 Rnd6 Sonny Styles
Steal is underselling it; Sonny Styles at the 183rd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick212 Rnd6 Jalen Travis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jalen Travis well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick216 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Cam Skattebo in pick No. 216, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in Round 7, Pick 7 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
