The Oakland Raiders have a lot of work to do in terms of the 2019 NFL Scouting Combine, and the on-field action will kick off on Friday. Here is how to watch.
The 2019 NFL Scouting Combine is upon us, and the Oakland Raiders will be front and center when it comes to this year’s event. The Raiders are the only team in the NFL with three first round picks, and hold five in the first 66 selections, so you can be sure they will be doing their due diligence this weekend.
Oakland brought in a new general manager this offseason, and Mike Mayock certainly is no rookie when it comes to the Scouting Combine. As a former draft analyst for the NFL Network, Mayock knows his way around this event, and has already been the focus of discussion on Day one.
On Wednesday, Mayock took to the podium, as he was the first person to speak in front of the media at the Combine. He spoke about Derek Carr being his franchise quarterback, and all of the things this team needs to work on if they are going to be competitive in 2019 and beyond.
Friday, head coach Jon Gruden stepped up to the podium, and really echoed the sentiments of Mayock. They appear to be on a united front heading into their first Combine as a duo, and will certainly have their work cut out for them over the next week.
The action kicks off on-field on Friday, where the running backs, offensive linemen, and specialist will do their workouts. Here are the event details.
