Quarterback settled, Sanders in the fold, and a B for the Raiders.

Call it larceny. Wyatt Milum sat on the board until slot 205, and the Raiders did not need to be asked twice.

Everything downstream of Shedeur Sanders depends on Shedeur Sanders, and the building knows it. Leaving running back unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the running back spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Shedeur Sanders
In the 13th pick they get a franchise quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jabbar Muhammad
Nice patience on Jabbar Muhammad, who had no business lasting to pick No. 45. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick77 Rnd3 Xavier Restrepo
Circle this one: Xavier Restrepo at slot 77 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick109 Rnd4 Tyler Baron
Tyler Baron in pick 109 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick141 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
You do not let a safety like Sebastian Castro reach No. 141 and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick173 Rnd6 Rylie Mills
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at the 173rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick205 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
Steal is underselling it; Wyatt Milum at the 205th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
