Here is a look at how the Las Vegas Raiders’ 2026 draft class (eight of the 10 picks are on the 53-man roster) fared in a 38-17 loss at the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday and what to look for Sunday at home against the Seattle Seahawks.
Fernando Mendoza:
The No. 1 overall pick has only played in Week 5 in a mop-up role.
Treydan Stukes:
The Raiders’ second-round pick played all 73 defensive snaps and had an interception, his second of the season. Stukes is not perfect, but he makes plays.
Trey Zuhn:
The
third-round pick made his second straight start. He had his struggles and left the game with a concussion in the third quarter. His availability for the Seattle game may be in jeopardy.
Jermod McCoy:
The fourth-round pick played extensively for the second straight games. He played 36 percent of the snaps. He had two pass breakups late in the game. McCoy may be coming into his own and he deserves more reps
Mike Washington:
The fourth-round pick played 34 percent of the snaps after playing 60 percent in Week 8.His work load reduced as well. He has just six carries for minus-3 yards a week after he had a season high 25 carries for 83 yards. It was a step back for the Arkansas product.
Dalton Johnson:
The fifth-round pick safety was inactive for the eighth time in nine games.
Zeke Masses:
The fifth-round pick played 12 defensive snaps, a season low. McCoy seems to have replaced Masses ,a once starter, in the rotation with starter Darien Porter.
Malik Benson:
The sixth-round pick was a healthy scratch for the second straigth game. We might have to wonder if Benson’s roster spot is in jeopardy if he continues to sit on game days.
