Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC+ FutureB
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Raiders.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Kedon Slovis; the Raiders did not wait, grabbing him 87 spots ahead at the 227th pick.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Devonshire. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick36 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Robinson. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick40 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in slot 40 is fair value, right on his grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick44 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at pick No. 44 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul is a better player than Round 3, Pick 13 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
Fair-plus on Brenden Rice, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick113 Rnd4 Isaac Guerendo
Isaac Guerendo at pick 113 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They paid a round early for Jordan Travis in Round 5, Pick 11, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick210 Rnd6 M.J. Devonshire
A cornerback of that caliber at the 210th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick221 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
Garret Greenfield at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tyler Owens
No edge and no loss on Tyler Owens in No. 225; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick227 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
Value said wait; Kedon Slovis in pick 227 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
