If only we knew how the Raiders felt about the RT situation


Right now, we are in the dark and can only speculate. We know that Trent Brown was not replaced. This could mean we are filling the position through the draft, or, we will replace the starting role position with a player on the team. There was the comment from Tom Cable that Parker will be able to "compete" for the starting spot. Lip service? Maybe, maybe not. Perhaps we would look to draft an OT in the first with the exception of a defensive player we covet- perhaps Parsons, Horne or Surtain- falling to the 17th spot. If we had more intel on how they felt about RT situation, we could at least feel more informed on our projections. Perhaps we could give greater consideration to a top tier insider blocker like Alijah Vera Tucker. If we are looking for a day one starter, that means drafting a RT in round one. For all the talk about how deep the OT class is, a day one starter narrows the field significantly.
