The Raiders have been awarded two compensatory draft picks for the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft, the league announced Monday.

The first compensatory pick comes in the fourth round at No. 134 overall and the second will be in Round 5 at No. 175 overall.

Compensatory picks are decided based upon a formula based on the previous year's free agents. Under the system, a team losing more or better compensatory free agents ("CFA") than it acquires in the previous year is eligible to receive compensatory draft picks, up to four maximum. The level of compensation is determined based on salary, playing time and postseason honors. No compensatory selections are awarded prior to the end of round three of the Draft.

Per the league, the Raiders' compensatory free agents lost were K'Lavon Chaisson, Divine Deablo, Nate Hobbs, Tre'von Moehrig and Robert Spillane. The free agents gained were Jeremy Chinn, Elandon Roberts and Eric Stokes.

Thirty-three total compensatory picks were awarded to 15 clubs.

The 2026 NFL Draft begins April 23 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
