Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders found their guy under center in Mendoza: B-.

Start where it matters. The Raiders took Fernando Mendoza to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

If Wagner pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In No. 1 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick36 Rnd2 Blake Miller
Blake Miller in pick 36 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick67 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in the 67th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
Mike Washington Jr. at pick No. 102 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick117 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in the 117th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134 Rnd4 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner at Round 4, Pick 34 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
