Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall D-
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureC-
The Raiders drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: D-.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Raiders shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The Ugwoegbu pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
They took Jayden Daniels at par in No. 7, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick52 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They did well to land Patrick Paul in the 52nd overall pick, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
By-the-book stuff, Mike Sainristil at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick84 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
A straight-up fair deal on Braden Fiske at pick No. 84, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick124 Rnd4 Sataoa Laumea
They paid sticker price for Sataoa Laumea in Round 4, Pick 24, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick147 Rnd5 Braelon Allen
A reach on Braelon Allen in slot 147; the board had better options right there. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick177 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett at the 177th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick190 Rnd6 Javon Baker
They let Javon Baker come to them and pounced at pick 190. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 David Ugwoegbu
A reach for David Ugwoegbu in pick No. 221; a little patience would have been rewarded. Need-wise, a curious use of the pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Blake Watson
Blake Watson in No. 231 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
