2019 NFL Draft: Oakland Raiders 7-round mock draft
By Brad Weiss
The Oakland Raiders have a lot of work to do with the roster heading into 2019, and here is an updated look at a 7-round 2019 NFL mock draft for the team.
The Oakland Raiders are coming off a 4-12 season, and because of that, they will hold the No. 4 overall pick in the 2019 NFL Draft. In fact, the Raiders will actually hold three first round picks, thanks to trades they made prior to the 2018 NFL season, and at the trade deadline.
After pick No. 4, Oakland will pick later in round one, as the teams they traded with, the Chicago Bears and Dallas Cowboys, both made the playoffs. The Cowboys made it to the Divisional Round, while the Bears were eliminated in the Wild Card Round, so the team will hold No. 24 (Bears), and No. 27 (Cowboys) in the first.
There are a lot of holes to fill on both sides of the ball, as the team will have 33 pending free agents this offseason as well. Head coach Jon Gruden and new general manager Mike Mayock will have to find a way to put a competitive team on the field in 2019, as the 2020 season brings their move to Las Vegas.
Here is our latest 2019 Oakland Raiders 7-round mock draft as we inch closer to the end of February.
