Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall F
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureF
The Raiders left with their quarterback, and a F to match.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Raiders spent the Round 6 slot on Jordan Strachan, a name the board had a full 137 spots lower.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The whole projection now runs through Jayden Daniels; hit there and everything else looks smarter.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In No. 7 they get a franchise quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick22 Rnd1 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. at Round 1, Pick 22 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick114 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick131 Rnd4 James Williams
A quiet steal in pick No. 131: James Williams for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick187 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for LaDarius Henderson. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jordan Strachan
They talked themselves into Jordan Strachan at the 210th pick, and the board did not agree. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick218 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
They jumped the gun on Rasheen Ali, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Joshua Cephus
No drama and no debate, Joshua Cephus went about where he belonged in No. 253. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
