I love the Clive Walford pick. You can never have enough weapons for a young, developing quarterback. The Raider staff has gone out of their way in two of the first three rounds to give Derek Carr some pretty lethal toys.
You could have made a case for Walford as the best tight end in this draft with seven touchdowns last season for the Hurricanes. Kudos to Reggie and Co. for landing arguably the best receiver and tight end on the board.
