Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureD-
The Raiders left with their quarterback, and a B- to match.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Raiders' quarterback, full stop.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Torrence. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Every board in the league had Boyd lower, and that gap is the story.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick No. 6 they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick44 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Good price on Zak Zinter in slot 112, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick148 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Khristian Boyd. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Ro Torrence
They will replay Ro Torrence at the 208th pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick223 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. at No. 223 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick229 Rnd7 Trevin Wallace
By-the-book stuff, Trevin Wallace at the 229th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
