Raiders' Draft: Defense Over Offense, Risky Bet
Description
The Las Vegas Raiders 2026 NFL Draft received an A grade, with quarterback Fernando Mendoza as their top pick. They added ten players, focusing heavily on defense, leaving just four offensive players besides Mendoza. The defense, ranked low in performance grades, was bolstered with six new additions. On offense, they drafted Trey Zuhn, Mike Washington Jr., and Malik Benson, but missed out on potential receiver upgrades. This defense-heavy approach may hinder Mendozas growth, making it a risky move for the Raiders.
