Draft Grade — Raiders

FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Raiders to a C. The Raiders went off the board in a big way for Garrett Dellinger, 62 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.
The Sampson steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back.
With edge rusher, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on linebacker is the choice that costs them. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
If Jahdae Barron and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Jahdae Barron
In pick No. 17 they get a ballhawk on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick33
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick37
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
They took Jihaad Campbell at par in No. 37, which is nothing to complain about. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick45
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts at the 45th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick68
Rnd3
Quinshon Judkins
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 4 with a little surplus value in Quinshon Judkins. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick70
Rnd3
Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the 70th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick88
Rnd3
Dylan Sampson
Taking Dylan Sampson in slot 88 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick108
Rnd4
Chris Paul Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Chris Paul Jr. in No. 108 leaves edge rusher, tight end and other spots for later.
Pick143
Rnd5
Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord at the 143rd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick180
Rnd6
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 180 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick213
Rnd6
Donovan Edwards
They robbed the room for Donovan Edwards here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick215
Rnd6
Isaac TeSlaa
They jumped the gun on Isaac TeSlaa, taking him earlier than his grade liked. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick222
Rnd7
Garrett Dellinger
A real head-scratcher, Garrett Dellinger in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
