Will Johnson CB Michigan - this was a guy I was originally listing at 6. He fell due to injury concerns but this is a top 10 talent. Huge get in the 2nd.

Mike Green EDGE Marshall - Strange story but TLDR is that he's just now coming into his own at EDGE and he's already borderline dominant. If he's got one iota of Maxx's drive and energy he'll be a superstar.

Johnson's knee is super sus, as is Green's character (sexual assault allegations in high school and college).

If Shede is gone, Burden would be nice. Or a trade down for WR Kyle Alexander or Jalen Royals. All three look like starting NFL WRs with upside. Steve Smiff comp'd Alexander to himself. Yes, please if that proves true.

 

[Chadstroma]

Will Johnson- if there, you go with your medical and either take or pass based on that. Turf toe is usually something that can be healed but it also can end careers. It would be nice to have a top 10 type talent fall to us in the 2nd for a position we badly need depth in and to get top tier talent in it would be awesome.

The knee... from reports.... is more of a long term question mark. With his upside in the 2nd... unless the Docs say pass... I think it is a swing you take in the 2nd

If we don't take Sanders here are my next best alternatives:

Luther Burden WR Missouri - Maik Nabers clone. Yes I said it. He's getting h8 because of a HUGE 2024 dropoff but WR stats are a derivative of the overall offense. Missouri's passing yards went from 3,671 in 2023 to 2,535 in 2024. Drafting him would almost make me forget about Sanders. Almost.

Mike Green EDGE Marshall - Strange story but TLDR is that he's just now coming into his own at EDGE and he's already borderline dominant. If he's got one iota of Maxx's drive and energy he'll be a superstar.

TJ Sanders DT South Carolina - Might be the best IDL pass rusher in the draft. Size/anchor/power/stamina concerns but physical maturity/growth can solve those - and if they weren't there he's be off the board by 10. I prayed for Mason Graham in the 1st but he was gone so this would be a nice consolation prize.

Honorable mention:

Nick Emmanwori S South Carolina - Freak athlete and talent. The kind of guy that shows you just how good your DC is. Coach him up and use him right and he changes how games are played. This pick scares me just a tad because there's a lot of risk. He's the kind of guy that's gotten by on talent for so long can he make the step up? Why wasn't he more dominant in college? Why did we hear about Malaki Starks as a freshman and Nick Emmanwori in November of his junior year? But the potential is worth the risk in the 2nd. How's this for a scary scouting comp - "Think a more explosive version of Kam Chancellor with better man coverage skills."? Wowza.

There's a long list of guys in this tier that are right behind the above that I wouldn't hate and would trust our FO on too but any of the above would have me doing cartwheels.

Good list. I wonder just how bad the medical is on Will Johnson. I'm hoping for Emmanwori.

I very much don't follow college ball but isn't he the kind of guy where the measurables far exceed the production? I read something about him having "stiff hips" which, if I understand this stuff even a little bit, is a big red flag for a DB. Wasn't that Jonathan Abrams issue, aside from health. Big hitter, great measurables, can't cover or adjust?

Emmanwori can cover. As noted in Hankmoody's post he's a great athlete. I think it's as simple as safety is not viewed as a premium position and rarely go in the first round as to why he is still available and was not viewed as a liklely first round pick.

No cap, trust

 

[Chadstroma]

If we do not go Johnson or Revel here (or trade down) then I would love to target Morrison in the 3rd.

 

[LawFitz]

Will Johnson was an absolute stud in college, so if the Raiders think his knee checks out, then fine. But I don't like the fact that he needed a knee procedure (grafting cartilage) that has a very low rate of return to full form, which came after he tore multiple ligaments in his big toe (grade 3 turf toe) that ended his season last year. Dude had top-ten upside prior to his injuries, but he now has a zero floor and could be a complete waste of an extremely valuable high 2nd round pick.

Lots of good CB options left that fit Carroll's prototype in this draft. Would rather see them hit a solid double with their next pick than swing with a moderate-high risk of completely whiffing going for the long ball. This team is not in a position to be risking valuable early picks IMO.

Shavon Revel CB East Carolina
Height: 6 - 1 |Weight: 194 lbs |RAS: N/A
Shavon Revel Jr. has a combination of height, length, and speed that you just can’t teach at the cornerback position. His physical tools alone would get him on the radar of NFL teams, but he maximizes well with a high football IQ. Revel can read and mirror route concepts well, and he's able to process and act on break angles in zone. His ball-tracking skills and long arms amount to exemplary playmaking chops, just as his length, along with his physicality, enables him to dictate in press-man coverage. Revel wasn't always tested to the highest degree by his competition in college, and he's also coming off a torn ACL. Those two factors muddy his projection somewhat. That said, Revel is reported to be on track for a full recovery, and assuming he is, he's one of the highest-ceiling CB prospects in the class.

Range: Rd 2

Dorian Strong CB Virginia Tech
Height: 6 - 1 |Weight: 185 lbs |RAS: 8.33
Dorian Strong is a skilled and instinctive cornerback who excels in man coverage but is also more than competent in zone coverage schemes. He possesses fluid hips, quick feet, and solid closing speed, allowing him to stick with receivers and disrupt passing lanes. Strong's ball skills stand out, as he consistently tracks the ball and makes plays in contested situations. He plays with physicality at the line of scrimmage, using his length effectively to disrupt routes. Strong’s football IQ and anticipation enable him to read quarterbacks and jump routes, but his aggression can leave him vulnerable if he mistimes plays and double-moves. Adding mass will be necessary for Strong to handle bigger receivers and further enhance his game as a lockdown defender, but his blend of coverage mobility and ball skills grants him scheme-versatile starter upside.

Range: Rd 3-4

Jordan Hancock CB Ohio State
Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 195 lbs |RAS: 9.82
Jordan Hancock gets overlooked at times, but he could be one of the better value acquisitions in the 2025 NFL Draft class. He has starting experience at safety and nickel, and his athletic tools are certifiably elite. At his pro day, he ran a 4.42 40-yard dash and jumped 41.5" in the vertical, at 6'0", 186 pounds, with near-32" arms. Hancock has the willing downhill physicality, quick trigger, and length for deconstruction that you want to see from a nickel, but he also has incredibly smooth and fluid coverage mobility, and a vast technical tool box based on where he aligns. Getting his head around as a playmaker in coverage is an area where he can improve, but ultimately, he's dynamic, versatile, and could become a "glue guy" for a secondary with more consistency.

Range: Rd 4

Korie Black CB Oklahoma State
Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 192 lbs |RAS: 8.42
Especially on Day 3 of the NFL Draft, athletic traits will elevate certain CB prospects. Korie Black falls into that bucket this year. At 6'0", 192 pounds, Black ran a 4.35 40-yard dash and jumped 39" in the vertical at his pro day. He's an elite athletic tester, and those traits show up on film. In off-man, he has the hyperactive twitch to reduce and realign his base, and the searing explosiveness to close and dish out punishment downhill. He'll have to add a bit more mass at the NFL level, but Black plays with aggression, is a proven playmaker with 3 INTs and 9 PBUs this past season, and has some projected schematic versatility with his tools.

Range: Rd 4-5

Zah Frazier CB UTSA
Height: 6 - 2 |Weight: 186 lbs |RAS: 9.36
Zah Frazier is a former junior college All-American but has only one year of starting experience at the FBS level. Frazier possesses outstanding size and length at the cornerback position. He is a good press corner who wins those reps at a high level due to his length and physicality. Frazier was primarily used as an outside corner at UTSA and has the athleticism and length to stick there at the next level. He is a long strider who can cover lots of ground. He possesses natural acceleration paired with excellent long speed. Very good tackler. Only missed two tackles this season and has a career 5.6% missed tackle rate. Physical player who isn’t afraid of taking on contact and an active run defender who can make plays in that department. He does an excellent job of limiting big plays when targeted with above-average ball skills that saw him have six interceptions and five pass breakups in 2024.

Range: Rd 5-6

 

[LawFitz]

There are a ton of good prospects likely to be available in rds 3-4 at multiple positions of need... I'd like to see the Raiders trade down with their next pick(s) if fair trade offers can be found.

Lockett is a Titan.

Tucker is at very least a guy you can have run go routes and stretch the field as a deep threat. I think he has shown enough to hope for more than that.

I think we sign at least two vets and draft at least one WR sometime in the draft. There is no way we go to war with the WR room we have now.

Ya i didnt realize he was taken right before the draft and changed it to Amari Cooper

 

[Hankmoody]

No TreVeyon Henderson? Obviously with Jeanty in tow he'd be superfluous but isn't he up there with the BPAs?

Jalen Milroe?

Henderson is 1/2 o why I didn't want Jeanty at 6. Banks + Henderson is more fun than Jeanty + anyone listed except Sanders. But you can't draft like that, because what if Henderson goes 25? Or 33? He's not "ours" yet and we still might not see him. You pick in the moment and Jeanty was a fine choice for that moment.

Big fan of Milroe's developmental upside but 37 is too early for me, we're not in a position to gamble picks yet. I'd take anyone on that list over Milroe easily. Milroe at 68 would be a snap accept but I doesn't look like he'll make it that far.

Gruden’s a clown

Emmanwori can cover. As noted in Hankmoody's post he's a great athlete. I think it's as simple as safety is not viewed as a premium position and rarely go in the first round as to why he is still available and was not viewed as a liklely first round pick.

In a straight line the dude's a gazelle but the stiff hips matter. It's a big coverage issue when a guy starts inside, you open your hips with him, and then he plants and goes outside. He knew all along where he was going, but you didn't and had to commit. Hips are how you recover - do you stutter step, take a slight stumble, god forbid have to turn out the opposite direction and do a 270? Can you just put a foot down, flip the hips, and go accelerate into his new route? Or when you've covering the underneath crosser and the QB goes to the post behind you? Can you plant, flip, and get a hand in to get the tip?

This is why combine testing is perilous in a vacuum. He didn't run the short shuttle or 3 cone so didn't expose his weaknesses which you clearly see at times on film. But used right, like as a WILL in trail pursuit or a box safety that attacks angles you can limit the exposure some.

Henderson looks like he could be a good RB in the NFL. Jeanty looks like he can be great with HOF potential. Much rather have elite players at TE and RB than a very good Oline or Dlineman. If I have a choice between a good O or D lineman and a good whatever else (taking QB out of the conversation) I will take the linemen every time but I am not going to pass on an elite player to hopefully get a good player at that position for a good lineman instead. That is my thinking and it looks to be the thinking of the org too.

 

[massraider]

He's 225 pounds. Kinda same role as Chinn. He's never a deep safety type. And with Pola Mau and Chinn, starters are set. If I thought one of these guys was a nickel LB type, that's interesting, but I feel like he makes sense elsewhere.
Will Johnson, I feel like a bunch of teams have let the world know their doctors did NOT sign off on him. Early in the 2nd? Feels like a big swing.

I think Luther Burden is a very solid pick.

Pass rusher from BC, Ezeiruaku, who actually produced in college, unlike some 1st rounders, that would be cool, but would that mean Koonce leaves? I dunno.

There's a bunch of Edge, WR, and CB near the top of Jeremiah's Best Remaining list, feels like it will come from there. I am guessing WR or CB, need and BPA seem likely to fit.

Yup, plenty of good players available. I would be happy with Emmanwori, Burden, Exeiraku (although I do like Koonce a lot) or Schwesinger. I agree on Will Johnson, he'd be long gone if the medical was clean, so I'm assuming it must be pretty bad.
Maybe a trade down also in the cards. Lots of chatter about teams trying to trade up with Titans, Giants and Browns. I've read those three teams specifically mentioned though, but not the Raiders which would lead you to think teams might be trying to get ahead of us.

 

[massraider]

In terms of fit at WR, Jayden Higgins would be nice. Pittman/London type. Has a 6'7 wingspan.

If I had to bet, I would say CB

 

[LawFitz]

Henderson is 1/2 o why I didn't want Jeanty at 6

I'd like to see the Raiders take one more RB from this deep class, but not at 37. Perhaps at 68 if Kaleb Johnson or Judkins fall or at 108 if Cam Scattebo falls. Otherwise, there are a bunch of 5'9'' 200ish bowling balls this year who can be had in the late rounds or UDFA as upgrades to Sincere. Spend the rest of the picks on at least one CB and a bunch of OL/DL.

If they are looking for BPA at 37 - if Shedeur is gone, then maybe this is the guy. 20 yr old with a solidly high floor already and room to grow further, literally. Can't have enough rotational pass rush IMO.

Nic Scourton EDGE Texas A&M
Height: 6 - 2 |Weight: 257 lbs |RAS: N/A
Nic Scourton might be the most aesthetically pleasing pass rusher in the class. He’s wise beyond his years regarding his arsenal of rush moves, and his well-developed frame is NFL-ready despite only being 20 years old. Unfortunately, gaining unnecessary weight for the 2024 season likely hurt his NFL Draft stock. At a more “natural” weight of around 265 pounds, Scourton would still offer a steady base as an edge setter while improving his initial get-off and bend. That bend at his density is a thing to behold. His ankles allow him to run under the table, and his hips hinge smoothly to soften rush angles while his hands dissect blocks through the outside shoulder. If he becomes more consistent as a run defender, Scourton could be one of the league’s best dual-threat EDGE defenders. His fluidity and manipulative nature as he closes the gap on blockers makes him potent on both outside rushes and inside counters, and he's a prime candidate to move about the formation on obvious passing downs to find matchups to exploit.

I had Scourton on my write-up but decided he didn't make the cut to five since we pick 37. Big tier of guys like this - the BC kid too.

 

[Hankmoody]

If Shede is gone, Burden would be nice. Or a trade down for WR Kyle Alexander or Jalen Royals. All three look like starting NFL WRs with upside. Steve Smiff comp'd Alexander to himself. Yes, please if that proves true.

I assume you mean Kyle Williams? Washington State? Nice player but he's 5-6 deep on the WR list for me - I'd far rather have Isaiah Bond, Noel, Royals, Tre Harris, maybe a couple others. Tez Johnson.

 

[Hankmoody]

A couple have mentioned trading down - sign me up for that if it's not Sanders. I'd love three bites at the apple in a little later range over two at 37/68.

Yup. Williams, Alexander, tomato, tomahto this time of year in the soup of names I'd never heard of two months ago.

Smiff caught my attention after he comp'd KW to himself. I was a huge Steve Smiff truther before he became a star - luv me some mighty mites!... KW vs. Matt Golden this year reminds me of Tyler Lockett vs. Phillip Dorsett from a decade ago. Though to be fair, Smiff ranked Golden as his #1 WR, so it's not an indictment on MG as much as it is a question of whether or not those two players are that far apart given their relative similarities.

Browns take Schwesinger with the first of their two picks among the first four tonight. Opens the door for someone to move up for Sanders; and indicates that they aren't too worried about missing out on him. Makes me think Sanders is going to fall to at least 2.5 if the Raiders are interested.

#Browns draft Ohio State running back Quinshon Judkins at No. 36 overall. Raiders up. Will Johnson still on the board

Shedeur available for the Raiders.
