Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

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

On value alone, Wilson makes the weekend a net positive. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting Buchanan proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick37 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
They let Emeka Egbuka come to them and pounced at the 37th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
A straight-up fair deal on Quinshon Judkins at slot 68, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
By-the-book stuff, Zy Alexander at Round 3, Pick 9 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
A tidy bit of business in pick 107, where Gunnar Helm graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Circle this one: Jared Wilson at No. 144 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jack Nelson
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jack Nelson at pick No. 182. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick214 Rnd6 Teddye Buchanan
They reached into another round for Teddye Buchanan, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick218 Rnd6 Kitan Crawford
A reach for Kitan Crawford in pick No. 218; a little patience would have been rewarded. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick224 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
The board fumbled Chimere Dike all the way to pick 224, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
