Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB+ FutureD
The Raiders won the night they stopped Smith from sliding. Grade: B-.

The Raiders did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Brashard Smith fell into the Round 6 slot.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Mason Graham
In pick 6 they get a disruptive interior force. A real need, handled.
Pick21 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick22 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In the 22nd overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick37 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker is a better player than slot 37 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick68 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy bit of business in the 68th pick, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Tate Ratledge
Tate Ratledge slipping to Round 3, Pick 22 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick107 Rnd4 Devin Neal
The board fumbled Devin Neal all the way to pick No. 107, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jalen Milroe
Somehow Jalen Milroe was still sitting there in No. 144, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182 Rnd6 Brashard Smith
Steal is underselling it; Brashard Smith at Round 6, Pick 4 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick183 Rnd6 Bhayshul Tuten
Bhayshul Tuten at pick No. 183 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick214 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Circle this one: Dont'e Thornton Jr. at the Round 6 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick218 Rnd6 Roc Taylor
You do not let a wide receiver like Roc Taylor reach pick 218 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
