34. Leon Orr

A talented defensive tackle out of Florida, Leon Orr worked his way into making a handful of appearances for the Raiders in his first season with the team in 2015. Getting valuable experience before turning his focus to dropping weight this offseason to become a more explosive presence on the defensive line.

Talking to Just Blog Baby earlier this offseason, Orr mentioned he spent much of his offseason down in Florida getting his weight down and taking care of his body so he can be more versatile. An exciting possibility as Orr’s talent is undeniable and with more athleticism the possibilities are endless for what the young Raiders defensive lineman can do.

After putting in the work this winter to get better, it is hard not to cheer for Orr to move up the depth chart this summer. Hopefully hard work pays off and the defensive tackle can start to make some big plays for the Raiders on Sundays in 2016.
