The Raiders finally had their first pick of the draft. They chose Utah offensive lineman, Tony Bergstrom. He is set to play guard for the Raiders which is a position the Raiders needed to fill. He was also one of the best players on the board as he was arguably the best zone blocking guard prospect in this draft.
I had Bergstrom pegged as topping the Raiders draft radar at guard and they did not disappoint. And now they are left with four more draft picks as a lot of other spots to fill. The list is long and includes Linebacker, nose tackle, tight end, wide receiver, center, offensive tackle, and cornerback among the biggest need areas.
Here is the list of the best players still remaining on the board who would fill one of the Current needs the Raiders have. I will update this list as players come off the board.
