Mock draft season comes for every team eventually. Like Thanos, it’s just inevitable. After a season in which we saw tragedy, drama, and just absolute chaos, the Las Vegas Raiders persevered to the very end.
The Raiders lost Saturday in an exciting match-up versus the Cincinnati Bengals in the wild-card round, but if we are being honest, the Raiders shouldn’t have made it that far. The team’s offensive line is below average, they lost their head coach mid-season due to him being caught in a racist email scandal, they lost two former first-round picks with one being their best overall receiver, all while playing in arguably the league’s toughest division.
That being said, it’s still mock draft season for the Raiders and it’s time to look ahead to the 2022 NFL Draft. Las Vegas is currently in the market for a new general manager and likely a new head coach, so trying to predict what this team will do in April is tough as we have no historical context of the new staff’s draft history, scheme, and preferences.
In comes Northern Iowa’s Trevor Penning, a name draft fans will surely get familiar with in the coming months. Penning has outstanding size, power, and flexibility. He is a mauler at the point of attack and looks to finish his opponent. His addition will go a long way in stabilizing this offensive line.Las Vegas has gotten by this year at corner thanks to veteran Casey Hayward turning back the clock and enjoying one of the best seasons of his career.
Washington’s Kyler Gordon is a name that could very well be called on day one. He has prototypical size, length, and athleticism while also possessing very good instincts and ball skills. I was told by an NFL scout that most teams view Gordon as a first-round pick.As it stands, the Raiders are set to lose nearly every interior defensive lineman on their roster in free agency. Now, I’m sure some will re-sign, but the team would still be smart to add depth at the position through the draft.
Brentley12 The Doubs pick would be great, he’d probably move Edward down the depth chart ultimately. I’m partial to Aaron Mosby if “we’re” picking EDGE defenders from the Mt. West. I’m obviously biased towards my fellow Fresno State alums but Mosby’s frame and speed I think project well.
Brentley12 Hey Brentley12 I'm sure you are aware we have an opening...you're hired lol. Great mock!
Brentley12 Calling Omar khan as the next raiders Gm.
