Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Raiders checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Raiders started one anyway for Lance Heard, 40 picks ahead of schedule.

They banked enough surplus on Bowen to cover a lot of smaller sins. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with cornerback chief among the fixes.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
In the 15th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Lance Heard
They reached into another round for Lance Heard, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick79 Rnd3 Jamari Sharpe
A straight-up fair deal on Jamari Sharpe at pick 79, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Amare Ferrell
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Amare Ferrell. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick152 Rnd5 Kam Robinson
Fair-plus on Kam Robinson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick196 Rnd6 Eli Bowen
They barely believed it either: Eli Bowen still on the board at the Round 6 slot. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
