Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD FutureA
More right than wrong for the Raiders, and a B- to prove it.

The Raiders bet big and early on Collin Oliver, 80 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Brooks. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

The dealing tilted against them, just enough to notice.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the 25th overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 37 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick58 Rnd2 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at pick No. 58 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick89 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
No edge and no loss on Jalen Milroe in pick 89; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick108 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cam Skattebo in No. 108. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick143 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A tidy little value on Malachi Moore in the 143rd pick, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Nothing to complain about; Jack Nelson went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick213 Rnd6 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in slot 213 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick215 Rnd6 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver in Round 6, Pick 39 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick222 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They liked Isaac TeSlaa enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 222. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
