It’s tough to really be invested in taking a corner in the draft this year because they have so many needs, but there are three guys who the Raiders couldn’t go wrong with. These three guys are in order of how dominant they are, but all three might be solid starters right away. Greedy Williams,
I said early on that Greedy could be an option at 4.
Many seem to have issues with him for whatever reason.
Maybe because he was unable to perform at the combine after the 40. He ran 4.37.
I have watched him for years and he has makeup speed when he gets beat, which is not often.
I still see him as a top prospect. If he is there at 24 or 27, as some experts think he will be, it would be hard for me to pass on him.
The thought if him and Conley seems pretty appealing to me.
I know, we need DEs and a foundation MLB along with a top TE, but BPA has been a tried and true method. Making your team stronger at a position is rarely a bad thing.
Obviously if you have Greedy and say MLB Bush there and both are rated the same, I totally understand us filling that key need.
So many needs on the roster; Edge, RB and TE. Hard to envision picking a corner in first 3 picks given higher priorities, especially with Worley resigning.
Scouts are also high on Lonnie Johnson, a big corner from Kentucky, who stood out at the Senior Bowl. He might be a good pick early in 2nd round
