Draft Grade — Raiders

Grand theft in pick No. 218: the Raiders steal Shough and grade out a C.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Tyler Shough got past him. The Raiders do not have to explain a thing at pick No. 218.

Gadsden II has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick24 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In slot 24 they get a disruptive interior force. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick33 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Value with a capital V on Emeka Egbuka in Round 2, Pick 1, a genuine coup. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick37 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A safety of that caliber at the 37th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick67 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A slide stopped in the 67th pick, with TreVeyon Henderson worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in pick No. 68 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick73 Rnd3 Jaxson Dart
A quiet steal in pick 73: Jaxson Dart for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
They robbed the room for Quinshon Judkins here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick107 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
A big swing on Oronde Gadsden II at No. 107, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Bhayshul Tuten
A reach for Bhayshul Tuten in Round 5, Pick 5; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Roc Taylor
They liked Roc Taylor enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 6 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick214 Rnd6 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
You do not let a wide receiver like KeAndre Lambert-Smith reach the 214th pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218 Rnd6 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough at pick No. 218 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
