The Las Vegas Raiders 2025 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and what good is a draft without some instant reaction grades? After some significant offseason moves, the Raiders may have pushed themselves to a new level with a strong draft class on offense.<\/p>\n
Most of the time, I would nail the team for positional value and contracts and all of those things. But sometimes, it’s okay to let the player who touches the ball 300 times a year be a taser with a mean streak. In a class without many blue-chip players, the Raiders swung on the best player available regardless of position. Check out this Ashton Jeanty All-22 film study<\/a> for more love.<\/p>\n Ashton Jeanty Scouting Report<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: A-<\/strong><\/p>\n Bech offers a ton after the catch and has some of the surest hands in the draft. That’s a little strange for a TCU wide receiver, but he’s here to break the curse. He was compared to Puka Nacua in this draft guide,<\/a> and while that might be some lofty expectations, their play style is certainly similar.<\/p>\n Jack Bech Scouting Report<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: B+<\/strong><\/p>\n He has loads of experience playing football and is one of the fastest players in the class. Unfortunately, his experience playing football hasn’t always been at corner. Porter was originally a wide receiver before converting positions. He’s on the older side, but the tools and upside are here for a difference maker in a year or two.<\/p>\n Darian Porter Scouting Report<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: B<\/strong><\/p>\n Rogers has experience as both a left and right tackle. He can either plug-and-play or he can be a versatile depth piece for the team.<\/p>\n College Caleb Rogers<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: B+<\/strong><\/p>\n Small-school offensive linemen normally have a transition period before hitting their stride in the NFL. Grant has the frame and athleticism, he’ll have a little time to learn.<\/p>\n Charles Grant Scouting Report<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: B<\/strong><\/p>\n You want to build your wide receiver room like a basketball team. The Raiders just drafted a power forward, with Thornton as the perfect blend of size and speed to open up space for the rest of the offense.<\/p>\n Dont’e Thornton Scouting Report<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n Grade: A-<\/strong><\/p>\n He’s undersized and old, but he has some juice. There are very specific situations Hemingway can make an impact, and hopefully his usage helps him out.<\/p>\n Grade: C<\/strong><\/p>\n Alright, let’s have some fun. Pegues is a DT with 31 college rushing attempts. Pete Carroll, have some fun. Let’s see a Pegues touchdown before the season is over.<\/p>\nRound 2, Pick 58: Jack Bech, WR, TCU<\/h3>\n
