COWTOWN DRAFTING FOR THERaiders

Draft Grade — Raiders

FutureB-
The Raiders checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Raiders did exactly that with Jordan Travis in the Round 4 slot. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.
The Torrence value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick13
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In the 13th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44
Rnd2
Braden Fiske
A reach on Braden Fiske in pick No. 44; the board had better options right there. It fills a real need, too.
Pick77
Rnd3
Spencer Rattler
They talked themselves into Spencer Rattler at pick 77, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick112
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
They reached into another round for Jordan Travis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick148
Rnd5
Dylan Laube
They went early on Dylan Laube in the 148th pick, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick208
Rnd6
Ro Torrence
Ro Torrence at No. 208 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick223
Rnd7
Trevin Wallace
The board had cheaper options than Trevin Wallace at the 223rd overall pick, and it noticed. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick229
Rnd7
Bub Means
They paid up for Bub Means at the 229th pick when waiting would have done the job. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
