Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Raiders for Burden III: B-.

Call it larceny. Luther Burden III sat on the board until pick No. 143, and the Raiders did not need to be asked twice.

If Gabriel pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They punted on offensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Good work on the whole, with offensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In No. 6 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel in the Round 2 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Dillon Gabriel
They reached a country mile for Dillon Gabriel at pick 68, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick108 Rnd4 Jordan James
Jordan James at pick No. 108 is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick143 Rnd5 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III in the 143rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180 Rnd6 Upton Stout
They paid up for Upton Stout at slot 180 when waiting would have done the job. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick213 Rnd6 Donovan Edwards
A slide stopped in Round 6, Pick 37, with Donovan Edwards worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick215 Rnd6 Luke Lachey
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Luke Lachey at the 215th overall pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jaylin Smith
Jaylin Smith at the 222nd overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
