Running Back. Oklahoma. Rodney Anderson. 133. player. 28.

The running back position in Oakland is going to be another group that is going to look different next season, as Marshawn Lynch will likely retire after 2018. Doug Martin is going to be a free agent, and won’t be back, and Jalen Richard is coming into free agency for the first time as well.

With their fifth round pick in 2019, the Raiders should think about adding talent to the group, and Rodney Anderson from Oklahoma would be a nice get this late in the draft. He is gone for the season due to a knee injury, but when he is healthy, he has proven to be one of the more productive rushers in college football.

Anderson is a fantastic back, and has shown during his time with the Sooners that he can get tough yardage, as well as be active in the passing game. There was a time last season where he was one of the more prolific backs in the country, and is he checks out medically prior to the NFL Draft, the Raiders would be wise to take a look at him.
