Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC FutureB+
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Raiders.

The Raiders torched the value chart for Maraad Watson, taking him 62 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The Washington value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Charlie Becker
In pick 22 they get a go-to option on the outside, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
A'Mauri Washington in the Round 2 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The roster fit checks out.
Pick79 Rnd3 Nyck Harbor
A big swing on Nyck Harbor at pick No. 79, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Andrew Sprague
They paid sticker price for Andrew Sprague in slot 87, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick117 Rnd4 Evan Tengesdahl
Evan Tengesdahl at the 117th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick152 Rnd5 Corey Myrick
Corey Myrick at No. 152 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick194 Rnd6 Maraad Watson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Maraad Watson this early at the 194th pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
