Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Raiders for Paul Jr.: B+.

The board owed the Raiders one, and it paid up: Chris Paul Jr., the No. 117 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 6 slot like a gift left on the doorstep. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.

The Griffith reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The phones were where this weekend was really won. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Adding Hendon Hooker by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 6th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick37 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at pick No. 37 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick68 Rnd3 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick73 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
No edge and no loss on Andrew Mukuba in Round 3, Pick 9; it is a wash and a sensible one. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick107 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
A straight-up fair deal on Luke Kandra at No. 107, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick179 Rnd6 Joshua Gray
Nice patience on Joshua Gray, who had no business lasting to the 179th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick212 Rnd6 Chris Paul Jr.
Taking Chris Paul Jr. in slot 212 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick216 Rnd6 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick 216 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick222 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Thor Griffith well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
