Oakland Raiders full seven-round 2019 NFL Mock Draft v3.0
By Brad Weiss
. Running Back. Kentucky. Benny Snell Jr. . 97. player. 28
The Raiders have some big decisions to make when it comes to the running back spot in 2019, as they have pending free agents, and a guy coming off the injured reserve who dominated during the preseason this past summer. Doug Martin, Jalen Richard, and Marshawn Lynch are all going to be free agents after the season, and the organization may choose to move on from all three.
Chris Warren III led the NFL in rushing yards during the preseason, but landed on injured reserve right before the season started, and missed the entire year. He is going to get a long look next summer, but the Raiders may choose to add a running back in the fourth round, and Benny Snell Jr. could be available.
While not a big kid, Snell is a guy who can do so much with the football in his hands, and played a key role in Kentucky being a big surprise in the SEC this season. The Raiders could use that kind of player on their offense moving forward, and if they decide to change the way the depth chart looks completely this summer, Snell would be a nice addition for the 2019 season.
