The Oakland Raiders have 11 picks in the 2018 NFL Draft, with most of them coming after the third round. Here are ten prospects they could get value from.

For the next six weeks leading up to the 2018 NFL Draft, every expert in America will be releasing their first-round mock drafts, giving people an inside look at the first 32 selections in April. However, what players could be good fits for the Oakland Raiders later in Day 2 or 3, where they have ten selections?

Every scout wants to find that hidden gem that will make them look like a genius to their general manager and owner. There are players like Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown or San Francisco’s Richard Sherman, who always seem to fall through the cracks on draft weekend.

Finding them not only brings talent to the field but adds flexibility in the salary cap that is paramount in today’s league. The Raiders have worked hard the past few weeks at adding players, while trying to shed salary cap.

As we look at the players not projected to go in the first round, there are a few players I think are potential bargains for Oakland from rounds three to seven.

Here are ten prospects the Raiders could grab in round 3 or after that can really help them in 2018 and beyond.
