By Nick Ellis
The Raiders have two picks in the first round for the second year in a row, and although they have improved, there are still a lot of holes to be filled.
After the Week 7 loss to the Green Bay Packers, I would have expected to see a lot of people changing their mock drafts to the Oakland Raiders drafting a cornerback in the first round. Surprisingly, this was not the case, and we dive into a few of them here.
Most people believe the Raiders should select a wide receiver and a pass rusher in the first round, but which ones will be available by the time the Raiders draft? The top wideout in this draft class, CeeDee Lamb, was recently seen sporting a Fred Biletnikoff jersey, fueling Raider Nation to want him to be their top pick in 2020.

In addition to their own pick, the Raiders also have the Chicago Bears selection, and based on what we have seen through the first seven weeks of the NFL season, they will most likely be the first slot the Raiders pick in next April.
Let’s take a look at who other people believe the Raiders will select in the 2020 draft.
