Pick 16- Tee Higgins- WR- Clemson

Brad Weiss, who is also our site expert at JustBlogBaby, also does the mock draft for FanSided.com, and he recently put out his latest one. The Raiders need help at wide receiver, and they clearly love drafting Clemson players, so this pick makes complete sense. Higgins would be the WR1 for the Raiders right away, and Jon Gruden would love to utilize a receiver with his skillset.

Derek Carr has shown he can get the job done this season without much help at wide receiver, but adding Higgins to a group that already includes former teammate Hunter Renfrow would be a stroke of genius by the organization. He has the talent to take the lid off the defense, and Gruden recently stated how much he loves his Clemson Tigers.

Pick 18- Dylan Moses- LB- Alabama

Before his injury, Dylan Moses was a projected top-five pick. The Raiders are one team that is not afraid to make a risky pick, and if Moses can come back healthy from his knee injury, he would be the steal of the first round.

Moses has long been considered one of the better overall players in college football, and you can believe he would have a place on this Raiders defense. He could be the middle linebacker this team has been missing, and when healthy, has the uncanny ability to absolutely turn a game around.
