Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA FutureA
Quarterback settled, Nix in the fold, and a B+ for the Raiders.

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

They banked enough surplus on Hopper to cover a lot of smaller sins. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick 32 they get a passer to set the clock by, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jackson Powers-Johnson. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley at the 77th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
They took Marshawn Kneeland at par in No. 98, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Kris Abrams-Draine
They went early on Kris Abrams-Draine in the Round 4 slot, and the value did not follow. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Nothing to complain about; Tommy Eichenberg went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick150 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
No edge and no loss on Theo Johnson in pick No. 150; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick177 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper in slot 177 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick190 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
They paid sticker price for Rasheen Ali in the 190th pick, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick234 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Nice patience on Darius Muasau, who had no business lasting to the 234th overall pick. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
