Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureD-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Raiders for Walker: B-.

Whoever sat across the table from the Raiders should ask for a receipt. They cleaned the room out, prying loose far more value than they gave up, and it was the quiet MVP of their weekend.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Walker. The Raiders indulged a want in Mukuba while a need in edge rusher, offensive lineman and other spots stayed open.

The Raiders clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptive interior force. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
They robbed the room for Jalon Walker here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick53 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
A slide stopped in slot 53, with Xavier Watts worth more than the price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick65 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson is a better player than pick 65 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Good price on Jalen Royals in No. 68, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Quinn Ewers
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Quinn Ewers. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick101 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
A curious use of pick No. 101. Edge rusher, offensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Andrew Mukuba did not.
Pick108 Rnd4 Zy Alexander
They let Zy Alexander come to them and pounced at the 108th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
No edge and no loss on Tyler Shough in the 143rd overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154 Rnd5 Brashard Smith
Steal is underselling it; Brashard Smith at slot 154 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
