Draft Grade — Raiders
Overall B
ValueA NeedB+ TradesA FutureF
The Raiders answered their biggest question with Ward. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Josaiah Stewart tumbling to the Raiders in slot 222 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

So much rides on Cam Ward that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it.

The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Travis Hunter
In the 8th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick20 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In pick No. 20 they get their guy under center for the next decade, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick59 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
A running back of that caliber at the 59th pick is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick69 Rnd3 Armand Membou
Armand Membou at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jayden Higgins
Taking Jayden Higgins in the 143rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick162 Rnd5 Walter Nolen
They will replay Walter Nolen at slot 162 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180 Rnd6 T.J. Sanders
They barely believed it either: T.J. Sanders still on the board at pick 180. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick222 Rnd7 Josaiah Stewart
Josaiah Stewart in Round 7, Pick 6 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
