Seth Steere, With the First Pick

Pick 10- Jerry Jeudy- WR- Alabama

In his recent 2020 NFL mock draft, Seth Steere from With the First Pick also likes the  Raiders to add wide receiver talent in the first round. There are a bunch of legitimate first round prospects at the position, but one name has stood out as the best of the bunch heading into next April.

Jerry Jeudy is regarded by most as the top wide receiver in this class and would be an instant WR1 in the NFL, especially for the Raiders. Jeudy runs routes as well as anyone in college football, and Alabama wide receivers have not disappointed in the NFL.

Pick 16- Kristian Fulton- CB- LSU

The Raiders clearly need help in the secondary, and Kristian Fulton would make an immediate impact on the team. Fulton can do it all at the cornerback position, and with the loss of Gareon Conley, the Raiders should look to acquire a cornerback early in the draft.

Of course, Trayvon Mullen has looked very good as a rookie, and Daryl Worley is turning into a playmaking cornerback for this team. Still, it will be very hard for the Raiders to pass up on a talent like Fulton, who has incredible coverage ability, and also comes from a winning program in LSU.
