The Oakland Raiders currently hold the No. 4 overall selection in the 2019 NFL Draft, and here are five realistic targets they should consider.

The Oakland Raiders will be on full display this upcoming April, when the NFL kicks off their 2019 NFL Draft. The Silver and Black hold three first round picks, and six of the first 100 selections, so they have a huge opportunity to really improve this roster moving forward.

Luckily for Raiders fans, the team recently signed a draft expert to be their new general manager, as they welcomed Mike Mayock to the fold this week. Mayock is a guy who knows how to evaluate talent, and with five first round picks in the next two drafts, the Raiders cannot afford to miss with a single one of them.

Based on their record, and the strength of schedule, the Raiders will hold the No. 4 overall pick in the first round. Oakland has a lot of ways they can with the fourth pick, but they should focus on the defensive side of the ball, and this is a draft class that is loaded with defensive talent.

Here are five realistic prospects they should target with the No. 4 overall pick.
