Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Mendoza headlines a B- weekend for the Raiders.

The Raiders spent the pick that matters most on Fernando Mendoza, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

The Jackson pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In pick No. 1 they get the arm they will build around at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick36 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
A straight-up fair deal on Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot, value and slot in agreement. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Steal is underselling it; Jake Golday at the 77th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick102 Rnd4 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. at the 102nd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick116 Rnd4 Treydan Stukes
They barely believed it either: Treydan Stukes still on the board at slot 116. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick117 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane in No. 117 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick134 Rnd4 Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They paid sticker price for Ar'maj Reed-Adams in Round 4, Pick 34, and that is fine. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick155 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
A tidy little value on Demond Claiborne in pick 155, a step better than break-even. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick175 Rnd5 Reggie Virgil
Value with a capital V on Reggie Virgil in Round 5, Pick 35, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick182 Rnd6 Seth McGowan
Nothing to complain about; Seth McGowan went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick185 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
Somehow Domani Jackson was still sitting there in pick 185, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick219 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
By-the-book stuff, Isaiah Nwokobia at slot 219 squarely in line with his ranking. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick229 Rnd7 TJ Hall
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TJ Hall in the 229th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
