Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Raiders fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Somebody in the 68th overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Raiders sat still while Xavier Legette, the No. 38 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

Guerendo has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 JC Latham
In No. 26 they get protection for the quarterback, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Michael Penix Jr.
Michael Penix Jr. in pick 34 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick48 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
They took T.J. Tampa at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick57 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
They read the board right and Cooper Beebe was the payoff at pick 57. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Steal is underselling it; Xavier Legette at Round 3, Pick 4 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
Fair-plus on Devontez Walker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick88 Rnd3 Cole Bishop
They paid up for Cole Bishop at the 88th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick89 Rnd3 Braelon Allen
They liked Braelon Allen enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 89. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick96 Rnd3 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at the 96th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
