Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureB
Grand theft in No. 193: the Raiders steal Simon and grade out a B.

You build a draft on nights like this. Cody Simon had no business being available in pick 193, and the Raiders did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The cost of the Horsley reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Cornerback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a featured back, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the 37th overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick41 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at No. 41 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
No edge and no loss on Jayden Higgins in Round 3, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Taking Jalen Milroe in the 119th pick is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Good price on Malachi Moore in slot 143, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick180 Rnd6 Willie Lampkin
Nothing to complain about; Willie Lampkin went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick193 Rnd6 Cody Simon
Circle this one: Cody Simon at pick 193 is a fall that decides a draft. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick213 Rnd6 Chase Lundt
Somehow Chase Lundt was still sitting there in pick No. 213, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick215 Rnd6 Cam Horsley
They jumped the gun on Cam Horsley, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick222 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw in slot 222 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
