RaidersAreOne Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) Just like that the 2021 comes and goes! Some very big lows, some huge highs and lots of new Raiders to get excited about.

FloydFan Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I give it a C+ to B- range. That first pick was a doozy but they rebounded very nicely. A lot of fun developmental picks and some potential studs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going be interesting to see how they both play. Not like Leatherwood was a college RT, they are both converting over to a new position.

I guess it’s projection, they think Leatherwood is going to be a better RT than Darrisaw, only time will tell I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManWillis Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Recap: Day 2 was a winner for me. Lots of potential with this class. Feel we did get a few good starters, and overall the team did get better. Fave Pick: Moehrig Least Fave: Leatherwood (Draft value not player) Sleeper Pick: Hobbs (Gut feeling he's starting sooner then later) Best Part: Abram is on notice, Leavitt is as good as gone. We have some real safeties now. P.S. Front Office really must have hated this years DT class. Thought there were a few opportunities to add one. With the lack of new talent drafted and the fact no DT are under contract after the season I'm Calling it right now, next yrs 1st round pick will be a DT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickButera Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 After the free agency spend on the DLine and watching this.... They're hell-bent on fixing this defense. Also shows you how confident they are in Carr and the offense. I really thought we'd be adding another WR though. Losing Agholor and replacing him with snead is a bit tough. Would have liked one more piece. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have liked one more piece. I think John Brown is Agholor replacement. Snead is just a bonus for more talent in the unit. I'm sure they expect Ruggs, and Edwards to make a year 2 jump.

BayRaider Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Grade are a combination of value and the player themself, although mostly value like any draft grades. 1st Round: OT/OG Alex Leatherwood Grade: F Hard, very hard to get an F. The only three F's I've given the past couple years were Tytus Howard to Houston, in the 1st Round, Damon Arnette to the Raiders in the 1st Round, and Alex Leatherwood to the Raiders in the 1st Round. 2nd Round: S Trevon Moehrig: Grade: A Tremendous value, tremendous player. 3rd Round Round: EDGE Malcolm Koonce Grade: C+ Solid depth for the EDGE spot in the third round. Replaces Arden Key. Not the greatest value, but not too bad either. 3rd Round: LB/S Divine Deablo Grade: B Don't think he starts but could push for a job. Excellent LB depth and even Safety depth. However, if he's a LB, why not draft Cox who is excellent in coverage and much better pure LB? Makes no sense. Regardless, I like Deablo a lot. 4th Round: S Tyree Gillespie Grade: B+ Hard to not like Gillespie and he's solid depth at both Safety spots, especially SS. If Abram doesn't get his act together, could push him for that job. 5th Round: CB Nate Hobbs Grade: A- I like Hobbs, he is solid CB depth and good scheme fit for Bradley. No, he's not a starter. 5th-7th Rounds you are trying to fill out depth. 7th Round: C Jimmy Morrissey Grade: B+ Solid depth in the interior line, something we desperately need. Overall Grade: C+ Pretty generous draft grade though. Someone could easily give this draft a C- or C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Beast Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 2022- I think we go DT and G early..... thats If WR- Ruggs and Edwards step up C- James is the real deal DE- Ferrell and Max Step up SS- Abram bounce back CB- young corners step up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 41 minutes ago, RaidersAreOne said: His excuse is he's a "plug and play player" ... If you don't care about value, you will not win a championship. If Leatherwood turns out a solid player cool, however, they still didn't maximize their value. Could of picked someone like Farley at 17, or a number of other players, and selected Leatherwood with a trade up in the 2nd. Would he have been there at 48? Probably not. Would he have been there at 40-43? More than likely. Although, I can't guarantee. They are the only team in the NFL that could care less about value, and they have admitted it several times.
