Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Raiders finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B.

Nobody had Riley Nowakowski this high, and it is not close. The Raiders reached 65 spots to get him at Round 6, Pick 27.

Fernando Mendoza is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. That is an offensive lineman worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. With edge rusher and wide receiver unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick No. 1 they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Lee Hunter
A straight-up fair deal on Lee Hunter at pick 47, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick67 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Value with a capital V on Emmanuel McNeil-Warren in Round 3, Pick 3, a genuine coup. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick84 Rnd3 Blake Miller
Blake Miller at No. 84 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Treydan Stukes in the 102nd overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jalon Kilgore. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick120 Rnd4 Bud Clark
A curious use of No. 120. Edge rusher and wide receiver needed the pick; a safety in Bud Clark did not.
Pick134 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
By-the-book stuff, Dametrious Crownover at the 134th pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick175 Rnd5 Taylen Green
Taylen Green in pick No. 175 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
They read the board right and Kaleb Elarms-Orr was the payoff at slot 182. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick185 Rnd6 Kaelon Black
A big swing on Kaelon Black at the 185th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick208 Rnd6 Riley Nowakowski
Riley Nowakowski in Round 6, Pick 27 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd7 Zxavian Harris
They paid sticker price for Zxavian Harris in the Round 7 slot, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
