The Raiders missed out on Ohio State defensive end Nick Bosa in this year’s NFL draft when the 49ers picked him at No. 2, two spots before the Raiders settled for Clemson defensive end Clelin Ferrell. Six months later, Raiders general manager Mike Mayock is on the lookout for the next stud pass rusher from
Raiders GM Mike Mayock scouting Ohio State DE Chase Young after missing out on Buckeyes DE Nick Bosa in this year’s draft
Well as long as trubisky is the qb for the bears it’ll only help for our draft pick. So let’s hope trubisky doesn’t get hurt again.
It would take too much to get into the top 3 or even top 2 to get Young. Young will be the first non QB off the board. Why give up that amount of capital given numerous needs on defense? In addition, Raiders traded Mack since they had numerous needs, per Gruden.
Mayock at game to see other prospects as well, such as Okudah.

The Big Board
1. Chase Young, EDGE, Ohio State
2. Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
3. Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
4. Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State
I would love for Ferrell to have a great second half to the season and increase his production leaving no doubt Mayock and Gruden made the right decision. But until then………
Much like MLB, DE was a need even with Mack, as he cant do it all by himself, that has gone unaddressed.
I have to believe that Gruden and Mayock are hoping that a high quality DE becomes available in FA for next season. One more player that will get a big contract if we are able to sign him.
The terrible part of this? If they keep losing, Denver could have a shot at Young. Uuuuggggg
Missing Person Appeal:
Oakland PD concerned about Clelin Ferrell, not seen in several weeks and his team are concerned about his continued absence on their latest road trip.
If seen please dial 01.#4.2019.WHO?
Imo we needed a dominant game from Williams and Ferrell, got neither.
Waller was taken out of the game for the most part, expect other teams to copy what the Texans did to force that.
Arden Key needs to graduate from “almost there” to “there.”
