After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Raiders committed. Fernando Mendoza is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Bisontis pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

They will need Coogan to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.1 · Pick 1 · Fernando Mendoza · QB · rank 4
In pick 1 they get a passer to set the clock by at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Lee Hunter · DT · rank 48
Circle this one: Lee Hunter at the 67th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
R4.2 · Pick 102 · Chase Bisontis · OG · rank 70
They barely believed it either: Chase Bisontis still on the board at the 102nd pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.17 · Pick 117 · Deion Burks · WR · rank 86
Deion Burks in the Round 4 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R4.34 · Pick 134 · Will Lee III · CB · rank 124
Will Lee III at slot 134 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.35 · Pick 175 · Aamil Wagner · OT · rank 173
No edge and no loss on Aamil Wagner in No. 175; it is a wash and a sensible one. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.4 · Pick 185 · Pat Coogan · C · rank 200
Pat Coogan in Round 6, Pick 4 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R6.27 · Pick 208 · Kaelon Black · RB · rank 217
A conviction pick on Kaelon Black at pick No. 208 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
R7.3 · Pick 219 · Riley Nowakowski · TE · rank 216
Riley Nowakowski at the Round 7 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.14 · Pick 230 · Aiden Fisher · LB · rank 229
A straight-up fair deal on Aiden Fisher at pick No. 230, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
