Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Raiders: B-.

The Raiders looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Tommy Mellott at the Round 7 slot regardless, 127 picks early.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Henderson. That offensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the offensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In slot 6 they get a load in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
A reach for JT Tuimoloau in pick No. 37; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They robbed the room for Jihaad Campbell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick73 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
No drama and no debate, Maxwell Hairston went about where he belonged in the 73rd pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They will replay Andrew Mukuba at pick 106 for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick142 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
Circle this one: TreVeyon Henderson at the Round 5 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick178 Rnd6 Kyle Williams
A real head-scratcher, Kyle Williams in pick No. 178 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick212 Rnd6 Theo Wease Jr.
They took Theo Wease Jr. at par in the 212th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick216 Rnd6 Will Sheppard
Will Sheppard at the Round 6 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick222 Rnd7 Tommy Mellott
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tommy Mellott well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
