I hope not... Sanders is definitely not worth trading up for... He may not even be worth a first. Ward seems to have a higher ceiling but don't know if he will reach that ceiling.
Honestly, neither guy is worth the trade up. With Geno no reason to move up in 2025. Use pick 6 either on Graham the DT, Johnson the CB. Assuming that the 2 QBs go before then. Carter and Hunter will both be gone.
Kind of surprised LV didn’t send Mayer out to get Geno. Seattle could use another TE. Letting Brown go I think. Maybe Fant later.

Yahoo Sports guys like the move for Geno

Looks like we're going to have a lot of new starters on defense. Spillane, Hobbs and Moehrig all gone.
Figure the GM, Carroll would have spoken with dC Graham and who he liked. Surprised all of them left. Figured one of Spillane or Morhrig would have been retained. LV not really paying any of their secondary guys. Don’t expect Jones to get a new deal after his rookie deal is up.
Only added Chin. To replace moehrig.

Raiders get 2 compensatory picks (6th round).
Still early in free agency but LV would be in line for 3 comp picks for the 3 guys they lost. 4th for Moehrig. Likely 5ths for the other 2. One could be netted out for the chinn signing but still very early.
Raiders basically replace Moehrig and Hobbs with Chinn and Stokes. Chinn/Stokes come in at a combined $12 mill AAV which is equal to Hobbs AAV. But, with all of their cap space LV has done little with it. The 2 top UFA WR were former Raiders in Adams/Cooper. The rest probably have seen better days like Kupp, Diggs, Godwin (I think he signed), etc.
These two comp picks are from free agency a couple of years ago. So it'll be future assets for guys lost this year.
Can’t say I am happy to see that many mock draft having the raiders draft RB Jeannty at 6OA. Talented guy but I think the team has other more pressing needs plus it’s a very deep RB class. The Wilson pick didn’t pan out this they are shot a DE plus a CB since they passed up Gonzalez to take him.
