31. Denico Autry

Autry is a personal favorite of noted #RaidersTwitter member @blackhanside, aka Menelik Watson.

But it’s for good reason. Autry is really impressive, making plays just about every time he gets on the field. Hopefully he sees an expanded role this year.

Autry has versatility to play inside and out, and is productive against both the run and the pass. He’s got plenty of athleticism to boot, and always seems to be in the right place at the right time, which speaks to his instincts on the field.
