Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Mendoza is the Raiders' new face under center. Grade: B-.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Raiders spent their marquee pick on Fernando Mendoza, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

Every board in the league had Fa'amoe lower, and that gap is the story. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

The Lane pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In the 1st overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
A premium they did not need to pay, Max Iheanachor a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick67 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
They paid sticker price for Dontay Corleone in the 67th pick, and that is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick102 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane slipping to slot 102 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore at Round 4, Pick 17 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick134 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens at the Round 4 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick175 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
A straight-up fair deal on Ted Hurst at No. 175, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick182 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa in pick No. 182 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick185 Rnd6 Red Murdock
No drama and no debate, Red Murdock went about where he belonged in slot 185. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick219 Rnd7 Fa'alili Fa'amoe
A real head-scratcher, Fa'alili Fa'amoe in Round 7, Pick 3 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
