Larceny in Round 6, Pick 4 lands the Raiders a B-, Bowman Jr. and all. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Billy Bowman Jr., the No. 116 name on the board, stolen at the Round 6 slot. No fireworks, but a solid B-.
Every board in the league had Monheim lower, and that gap is the story. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with cornerback the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick Analysis
Pick6
Rnd1
Kelvin Banks Jr.
In pick No. 6 they get an anchor for the offensive line. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in slot 37 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68
Rnd3
Omarr Norman-Lott
They paid sticker price for Omarr Norman-Lott in the 68th overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick107
Rnd4
Jonah Monheim
Jonah Monheim at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick144
Rnd5
Nazir Stackhouse
Value said wait; Nazir Stackhouse in pick 144 says they were not listening. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick182
Rnd6
Billy Bowman Jr.
They will replay Billy Bowman Jr. at Round 6, Pick 4 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick214
Rnd6
Cobee Bryant
Cobee Bryant at No. 214 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218
Rnd6
DJ Giddens
DJ Giddens in the 218th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick224
Rnd7
Carson Vinson
A slide stopped in the 224th overall pick, with Carson Vinson worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
