The Oakland Raiders biggest need heading into the 2019 NFL season is going to be on the edge, and they should utilize their first of three first round picks on the position. Luckily for them, there is a ton of edge talent in this draft class, including Josh Allen from Kentucky, who should be there at No. 4.

While some mock drafts have Allen going first overall, or even second, as the San Francisco 49ers need edge help at No. 2, there is a strong possibility he is still on the board when Oakland picks. Allen is a guy who can fill two needs for the Raiders, as he is an incredible outside linebacker, but also is one of the premier pass rushers in the class.

Allen ended his college career with an exclamation point, as he manhandled a very good Penn State offensive line in the Wildcats’ bowl game victory. He is a guy who is going to be an impact player at the next level, and would look oh so good in the Silver and Black.
