NFL Draft 2019 Results: Analysis on all Oakland Raiders draft picks
Round 7, Pick No. 230: Quinton Bell, Edge, Prairie View
It is quite the challenge to really detail a seventh round selection that Quinton Bell was for the Raiders. Bell was drafted 230th overall out of Prairie View A&M, which I’m sure many of us have heard (sarcasm).
What intrigues me the most about Bell is that he was actually a wide receiver. That is quite the story to switch to defensive end. So think about that, he spent majority of his college career as a receiver. Then switches to defensive end his senior year and becomes an NFL draftee.
The fact that he validated a selection after just 10 games says a lot about the guys motor and the traits he possess. I don’t want to bring that much hype on this player, but getting drafted off of tape from just 10 games is impressive.
Bell is still clay that needs to shaped and molded, but who knows. He could very well be a solid rotational player on the defensive line.
