Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall C+
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureC+
The Raiders bet the future on Mendoza. The board says C+.

The Raiders spent the pick that matters most on Fernando Mendoza, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

Reaching for Spears-Jennings left real value on the table behind him. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Landing Jackson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Hit on Fernando Mendoza and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick No. 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Christen Miller
Christen Miller at No. 36 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
The board had Zachariah Branch higher than the 67th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
Fair-plus on J.C. Davis, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick175 Rnd5 Jaydn Ott
They took Jaydn Ott at par in pick 175, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Domani Jackson in the 182nd pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick185 Rnd6 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock in Round 6, Pick 4 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
A big swing on Robert Spears-Jennings at the 219th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
